Two people were killed and two others injured in a midair collision between a Rotorway 162F helicopter and an ELA Eclipse 10 gyrocopter at Wittman Regional Airport in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. The incident occurred during the Experimental Aircraft Association's annual fly-in convention, but the aircraft involved were not part of the air show. In a separate incident, a single-engine North American T-6 aircraft crashed into Lake Winnebago near Oshkosh, resulting in the deaths of two people. The National Transportation Safety Board is investigating both accidents.
