Masters of the Air is the third World War II miniseries from Steven Spielberg, Tom Hanks and Gary Goetzman, following Band of Brothers and The Pacific.

Goetzman said Spielberg’s father had been pushing them to do the series about WWII pilots since their first. “We had an obligation to Steven’s father,” Goetzman said at Contenders TV. “He was in the Army Air Force.

He’d seen Band and The Pacific and say to Steven, ‘Those are great. When are you going to do the pilots? When are you going to do Europe?

If we ever did another one that would be it.’ Then Don Miller’s book came along.” Beyond Miller’s book, technological improvements made Masters of the Air feasible decades after Band of Brothers.
