BEND, Ore. (KTVZ) — KTVZ Chief Meteorologist John Carroll spoke at the monthly meeting of EAA (Experimental Aircraft Association) Chapter 1345 High Desert Flyers at the Bend Municipal Airport Wednesday night.
The High Desert Flyers are a group of aviation enthusiasts, aircraft builders and pilots who meet each month to share ideas, exchange information, encourage safety and serve the local aviation community.
John discussed the daily weather duties associated with broadcast meteorology, along with severe weather coverage and fire weather forecasting.
A big part of the “Flyers” is the Young Eagles program, which encourages youth in Oregon to become aviators.
