Jim Clark was flying one of these two at Oshkosh.  The most beautiful
rotary installation imaginable.  These planes were featured under the
arch at Oshkosh.  I don't know which one Jim was flying.  The other was
was flown by Gerry Gustafson.

This may be it.  This plane is registered to James T Clark, with engine type
"unknown".  The Van's article named the owner as Jim Clark.  Haven't seen
any other data.  Rusty (still insuranceless)
