Thunderlane is a male Pegasus pony in My Little Pony Friendship is Magic. He has a dark grey coat, amber eyes and a blue-silver mane.

Depiction in the series
Thunderlane is part of the Pegasi's tornado duty in Hurricane Fluttershy, but unfortunately this was just as he started coming down with the feather flu. During the episode, Thunderlane coughs at multiple points. The first time is during the initial briefing in the library. The second time is during the talk Rainbow Dash gives to the group of Pegasus ponies before they begin measuring their wingpower - Twilight responds to this by spraying him with disinfectant, and Rainbow Dash responds to this by claiming that he is just trying to get out of the event because he is lazy. Dash later calls it "fake coughing". On the day of the tornado itself, he had to go to Ponyville Hospital because of his feather flu.

During training, he was blamed for Blossomforth’s coughing and protested that it wasn’t him; Rainbow Dash did not believe him and ordered him to be the first test flier. Thunderlane was annoyed at being first up, and glared at Blossomforth. When it came to the test flight he blazed down the track with a look of determination and was recorded with 9.3 wingpower. He was cheered by the crowd and received an adoring look from Cloudchaser.

He has a younger brother called Rumble, who does not yet have a cutie mark. Rumble was seen with his brother during training. During the final event, Rumble tells Twilight and Rainbow Dash that Thunderlane has fallen sick.

Thunderlane later makes a minor appearance as a member of a crowd in A Canterlot Wedding - Part 2. He can be seen in the scene after Twilight Sparkle straightens the crest on Shining Armor's chest.
