IndUS Aviation Closer To Moving Thorpedo Operations To China

Plans To Manufacture And Distribute Aircraft World Wide From Weinan

Dallas-based IndUS Aviation continues to move forward with Dr. Yuanyang Gao, representing the Chinese city of Weinan and Mr. Ning An, president of China's IPI Information Technology to move production of the Thorpedo Light Sport Aircraft to the new LuYangHu General Aviation Development Zone in Weinan, China.

Under the new partnership, IndUS USA will be responsible for all research and development, modifications and technical updates in the USA, with requisite FAA and international aviation agency approvals. Parts and support for the Thorpedo SLSA will continue to be provided from the US headquarters in Dallas, TX.

"We will continue current support operations in Dallas and focus on building primary training aircraft in large numbers to meet the expected demand for such aircraft in India and China. With our new Chinese partners, we will develop the LSA market in Asia, and continue to oversee final assembly of  Thorpedos in Dallas to support sales in North America," said IndUS founder and owner Ram Pattisapu.

The unprecedented partnership, puts IndUS in a unique collaboration with the Chinese government and private industry in central China. The partners will operate a newly created company in China presently called 'IndUS-IPI'.

The reciprocal agreement involves equity positions between IndUS and IPI, with support of Weinan government. This unique collaboration between private industry in the US and China was made possible through the sponsorship of the Weinan City government.

The Thorpedo SLSA is derived from the FAR 23-type certified Thorp T-211 SkySkooter.
