I do that .. in a nut shell I take the Thorps in the FAA and registry pull the addresses down, update the list with known changes, geocode the list then feed them to Google Maps. It is very much out of date right now.

Thanks, Lee. In the meantime, guys and gals, check out the pin map on the web site. You might find a Thorp in your neighborhood!

Lee, if you want location info for the T18’s in Canada, I can dig it up.
We have 15 or 16 active airplanes here.

Also, if you need a Canadian Thorp Ambassador, I’m happy to throw my hat in the ring.

Click on the Thorp logo in the upper right corner of this page and then click on "Thorp Map".

The Thorp Map has been updated with the latest FAA Registry data.

It dropped me and I still have my Thorp. So much for the FAA registry. But why would one trust the guvmint anyway?

I had forgotten how much info is on the home page. I can’t access much of it with my iPhone. Using iPad this morning and appear to have access to all of it. Kinda weird since the two use the same iOS and browser.
