And if you thought Boeings were ugly, here is the big piston engine Sikorsky S-56 (CH-37). Yes, it has two R-2800's driving one rotor.

Reminds me of this unfortunate mishap. Army Aviation Heritage Foundation Cobra crashed at Coolidge AZ airport (long before the founding of the AZ Chapter, not us). Again, both walk away. It is a tough bird.
