We've successfully done two turkeys, in two roasters, side by side, in one oven, if they're smallerish turkeys and if you either tie the wings or don't care if they burn (we do 'em breast side down for extra juiciness).
This does mean lots of rotating and basting, and finding two roasters to fit; but the oven in question is an old-fashioned electric oven of no particular merit. We do two medium turkeys (say, 13-pounders) in there every year to feed around 30 people, because the oven is too short to roast a twenty-pound turkey in.
Mind you, I like ham, and it sounds a lot easier. I'm just sayin'. :)

There's a reason my family tends to do *two* turkeys.
