Episode 16:
In a military career spanning over twenty-five years, now-retired Captain of the US Navy and member of the IWC family, Jim DiMatteo, has amassed over 5’000 hours in 5 different fighter aircraft. In this episode of Partners in Time, host Chris Grainger-Herr grills DiMatteo with interesting questions about the training a Pilot in the Navy Fighter Weapons School must go through. They discuss how a spot landing on a (constantly moving) aircraft carrier fuels the competitive mindset of naval aviators, and how bars are an integral part in forging friendships in the Navy.
Tune into this episode to receive an in-depth insight into the life of a TOPGUN pilot and discover the current favorite watch of Jim DiMatteo: The Pilot’s Watch Chronograph Top Gun Edition “SFTI” IW389104.
