Your reading comprehension is very low, if you think anything in that report
says that being in the wrong place on a taxiway is a runway incursion. *In
fact, there is nothing at all in the whole page that supports your position.

Comprehend this: I don't suppose the part where myself, the chief CFII
and three other CFIs spoke with ATC this afternoon and confirmed my
position means anything to you.

Call your local tower and ask them what happens if you enter a taxiway
without permission. I'm not claiming to be an authority; I can only
tell you what the Renton FSDO and KTTD Tower say, and what I was told
at the Runway Safety seminar on August 7.

It may not be good enough for you, but, if you enter the taxiway or
other "protected areas" at this towered airport, tower will report it
as a runway incursion. According to them. Once again, for the slower
readers, IF YOU CROSS ONTO THE TAXIWAY WITHOUT CLEARANCE, TROUTDALE
TOWER WILL REPORT IT AS A RUNWAY INCURSION. IT'S HAPPENED, IT HAPPENS,
AND IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN.
