Check Six – 2002: John “Zoomba” Traettino

This photograph shows a young John “Zoomba” Traettino. He flew F-15 Eagles with the 199th Fighter Squadron for many years. Zoomba was one of the F-15 pilots that transitioned to the current F-22 Raptors.
He later served at the National Guard Bureau and retired there as a colonel. After his military retirement, we understand he flew for American Airlines.
Zoomba – definitely a great pilot and person.
