One reviewer said: “Gripping, while a knuckle ride that hits you in the gut and puts a lump in your throat. Majors ‘Buck’ Cleven (Butler) and ‘Bucky’ Egan (Turner) are spectacular, putting you smack dab in the middle of World War II, 1940’s and their improbable yet unbreakable friendship and unwavering commitment to keep climbing into those flying tin cans despite staggering odds that they might not climb back out.”

Masters of the Air is available to stream on Apple TV and Amazon Prime.
