Real-life pilot Jack Leonard had the unique opportunity to act in all nine episodes of "Masters of the Air" while furloughed during the pandemic. In that time, he served as Austin' Butler's double, played with "Meatball" the dog, flipped a lot of switches, and witnessed the drama of a big budget film set. In this episode, he joins Jared Frederick for a lively conservation on the making of the WWII epic.

Reel History delves into historical films to separate fact from fiction. These engaging episodes explore, contextualize, and clarify stories related to the most famous historical movies. In contrast to the more prevalent "reaction" videos, these installments seek not only to entertain but to educate and inform. For host Jared Frederick and producer Andrew Collins, these episodes are a labor of love and a means of expressing passion for the past as well as cinema. Courteous viewer feedback is always welcome.
