portland does not have rebuild-a-bridge money, it doesn’t even have the money to fix the bridges we already have

Unless they built that bridge outta fairy dust, hopes and dreams, it's luckily not going down from a little puddle jumper like in this video. Incredible that the pilot thought he might clear something of that height from that short of a distance, what a numbskull.

my bro I am pretty sure a small plane slamming into the side of a 116 year old bridge is going to do some fairly major damage

I was just pointing out it's a small aluminum STOL aircraft, if the bridge is still worthy of vehicle traffic there's no way it'd "take out" the bridge. If it did I would question the structure of any of the area's bridges. Would engineers need to come out and ensure everything is sound? Well yeah.
