You'll probably cry every time you hear Air Master's opening theme song, but it also has an incredible soundtrack - it's every song in the series.
Developed by Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg, Air Master is the third installment in the Band of Brothers "trilogy" - but this time, it's moving from its HBO predecessor to Apple TV+.
The play is adapted from the novel of the same name by Donald L. Miller and tells the story of the 100th Bomb Group from its first pilots ("Buck" played by Austin Butler and "Bucky" played by Callum Turner) to The story of the infamous and deadly mission carried out over Nazi Germany and earning them the infamous name: The Bloody Hundred.
Episode 9 airs today on Apple TV, and your ears may pick up on some familiar tunes from the first few episodes - so here are all the songs the show has played so far.

We should note that in all episodes, music can be heard in scenes where several actors are speaking. It's quite faint, which makes it difficult to pinpoint. There are arrangements for other songs, but once we figure out what they are, we'll add them to the list.
The official synopsis reads: "Air Masters follows the men of the 100th Bomb Group as they conduct dangerous bombing raids into Nazi Germany and deal with the frigid conditions, lack of oxygen, and sheer terror of combat at 25,000 feet. .
“Depicting the psychological and emotional toll these young men paid in helping to destroy the horrors of Hitler’s Third Reich is at the heart of Air Master. Some were shot down and captured; some were shot down. Some were injured or killed. Some People are lucky to be able to come home, no matter their personal fate, they all paid the price."
