Lincoln Beechy was a real person (although his last name was spelled “Beachy”) and one of the first aviators. His fictionalized version shows up in Shale City when Joe is still young, giving Joe a glimpse of the world outside his relatively small town. Beechy’s stunts show the potential of new aviation technology, but his death soon afterward demonstrates the consequences of this technology.
