For this trip, you take off from Twin Oaks, land with a taxi-back at Hillsboro (just for practice-since its on the way),
touch and go at Scappoose, then fly through downtown Portland south east down the Willamette river.

The runway is just too the right of center. Notice the houseboats ?

Scappoose is really cool place to do touch and goes as the pattern takes you out over the edges of wetlands of the Columbia
and the Columbia and Portland stretches out to the east and north so you passengers, if any, will have lots to look at while
you practice.

St Helens behind the Columbia
This complex on the hill to the left of center is "Pill Hill" and the new taxpayer funded doctor welfare tram to nowhere
is evident if you look closely enough.

| Does Portland have enough bridges ? |
These pics are only so-so as the self-evident Willamette valley inversion layer was in effect this day.

If you hurt yourself, I have never seen you before and somebody else posted this stuff here.
No, I don't know who it was
