Looks like a couple of Air & Space 18A gyroplane fuselages to me.

Not sure if it was here last year, but I know for the past couple of years when I've had time to get around the grounds during AirVenture, there's been an Air Truk for sale parked down near the Vintage area. There was even one of those odd looking Brooklands Aerospace Optica OA-7s as seen in the old sci-fi movie Slipstream for sale a few years back. Never know what you'll see in Oshkosh!

When I saw the thread title I figured that it was going to be about something that most of the WIXers really won't have any idea about.... a picture of a pair of boobs. :twisted:
