That was an interesting 720, I had never seen one with a gear nose and spline shaft. I wonder if it's a helicopter or industrial version?

They lost two cylinders when they installed it in the airplane!!

Good video for student pilots.

Yeah, several planes use the IO-720 with a prop flange on the crank. That is a (V?)IGO-720 with a spline shaft, didn't even know it existed.
