Being at Newport after last saturdays MP session I took the opportunity to visit a friend of mine at Twin Oaks (7S3); Robert C. Stark and his wife Betty.
They are the owners of Twin Oaks Airport and are located at 12405 S.W. RIVER RD, HILLSBORO, OR 97123 (503-628-2056).
The airport is located just about 70 nm NorthWest of Newport
Took off from Newport RWY 20
