Beck (1876-1922) sits next to pilot Phillip Parmelee (1887-1912), in a Wright Model B biplane before taking off for a demonstration of wireless communication between an airplane in flight and a ground operator, January 1911, Tanforan. Beck, at left, holds a radio transmitter labeled "Type A-4 Aeroplane Wireless Telegraph Set. Designed By Western Wireless Equipment Co."
