Owen Edwards’s publication: “The Tuskegee Airman Planes Last Flight” is the topic of this reader’s response. The story is about air force captain Matt Quy and his PT-13D airplane. In the story Cpt. Quy and his wife bought the plane, and with the help of friends fully restored it. While researching the plane they found out it was used in Tuskegee training, which led to the Quy family donating the plane to the National Museum of African American History. Edwards’s publication was suitable for the Smithsonian Magazine because it’s a story that should be significant in African American history. It’s a historical event that should be in the biggest museum and research complex magazine. Almost everybody that’s a fan of history or as a hobby reads The Smithsonian. Owen Edwards’s purpose for narrating this event was to honor the Tuskegee airmen, and to also highlight the generosity of the Quy family. Edwards recalled events that took place like the airshows plus the mechanical work for the plane. The Quy family dedicated a lot of time and money to the restoration of the old airplane. Edwards’s attitude made him seem proud to witness the last flight of the plane. To see the plane go from wrecked to fully operational had to be astonishing. He even said something on the likes of that the final landing was very quiet while people in the attendance were aww struck. Even in a hangar full of faster and bigger planes the PT-13D stood out the most. Once finding out the plane was used at Tuskegee training they had to honor the former Tuskegee Airmen, being that the owners were current military it was only right. The former airmen were honored at airshows and the plane was taken back to Moton Field in Tuskegee, Alabama. They also have the signatures of 45 Tuskegee Airmen on the aircraft. Edwards had many advantages on the publication. By having it online and on print the publication had more exposure to the world now that you have just as many digital readers as people who buy magazines or read any other type of print.
