This map thingy is quite interesting
http:/
We have welcomed a few people on the map that I was not aware of being F16 sailors.
Examples;
Simon Stannard Northwich, (England) Spitfire
Tim Montague-Jones , Sydney, New South Wales (Australia) - Taipan F16 Aus 099
Peter & Carol Eldridge Dubai, Dubai (United Arab Emirates) - Spitfire #134
Matt in Fairport (NY) USA - Building a Blade F16
Abie Loubser Cape Town, Western Cape (South Africa) Mosquito F16
Holger Siebke Kiel, Schleswig-Holstein (Germany) - Blade F16 on order
I'm still missing Dirk and his Gang in shanghai. Wouldn't it be cool to be the first registered beach cats in China ? And the signapore guys ?
So I'm bumping this post to encourage everybody to place a pin on the map of where they are.
Mind you this mapper is also very handy to decide which location is the best for a regional championship like the Europeans.
Wouter
Dirk has placed himself and the Shanghai guys on the map.
How about those Singapore sailors ?

Has anyone figured out how to go back and edit their profile or add a photo?
I have written an e-mail to the guys behind this site and requested to assign administrator rights to me (or anybody else who wants to volunteer for maintaining this site over the coming future)
Hopefully we can solve the issues that way.

If it's the Gary I know from Grafham, it's a Silver Stealth F16 he is sailing.
Yes Scooby, it is!
Eric, Why can't you just go to "My Home" and edit it and add or change a photo? I have changed my profile a few times.
Eric,
I have acquired administrator rights to the Frapper map.
With respect to your request, we can do two things :
-1- You read the frapper help file and try to log on as yourself and edit your profile; Help = http:/
-2- I can delete your current profile and comments and you can announce yourself again on the frapper map as a new user with your new profile and picture. Be sure to remember your login credentials afterwards.
Your choice !
Wouter
Sorry, disregard. I thought you were talking about editing your profile on this web site.
If it's the Gary I know from Grafham, it's a Silver Stealth F16 he is sailing.
Gary Smith from Eastbourne was sailing a Spitfire at the Cat Open at Grafham, as recently as October.
Obviously a few Gary Smiths' around.... afterall, Gary is a very uncommon name 
Not the same Gary then. Ho humm....
Wouter,
Go ahead and delete me so I can redo my profile from scratch--I can't get logged in.
Yes that was me!
Sailing Spitfire at Eastbourne and at the Grafham open.
Sorry for confusion we Smiths seem to get everywhere, didnt know there was another Gary sailing a Stealth though. 
Often read this forum in the hope of learning something!
Thought I would put us on the map and give Eastbourne a plug hoping you will come to our Cat Open 29/30 July.
There is always a good fleet of Spitfires 15-20.
I know F16 are a bit different to the Spitfire but I find the 'grandfathered' thing a strange term 
gary
DONE ! go ahead and make a new profile
Wouter
Wouter, it didn't take my zip code and now I'm back on without photo. Can you delete me again? I'll get it right sometime.
I've removed it again, go ahead and give it another shot.
