I may be wrong but you may find that pinioning is illegal in Qld & most other states except for medical reasons.
If you think about it, you are permanently maiming an animal. Sure it has husbandry advantages but in this day and age you may find that it is no longer considered ethical, much like debarking dogs or tail docking.
Let us know how you go.

I debarked my dog so he wouldn't complain when I docked his tail. 'My bad?

Actually the debarking of dogs in still OK here in Qld, and most other states, I think Victoria is the only place it is now allowed. Tail docking is a different case as it is purely cosmetic 99% of the time.
I still doubt that you will find a vet to do the job for you, you probably need a breeder to show you how it is done. It is a very simple process, but must be done very young, before the blood flow increases into the wing ends.
If you PM DannyB he may be able to give a definitive answer as to the current legal status of pinioning.

You can have some breeds pinioned it depends on if they are native or not and the pest risk
