Despite announcing Austin Butler as the lead Masters of the Air, the show has made Butler’s character disappear, and now, another actor seems to be taking his place for the time being. For the first four episodes of masters of air, Austin Butler played Major Gale ‘Buck’ Klevan, the leader of the 100th Bomb Group.
