Well, golly, gee, Doodles, I'm impressed. A simple direct answer to a
simple direct question.
Simply stated, for those who live in the real world of boating and
propellors, when discussing "Feathering" props with Doodles, keep in
mind that if there is any curvature or cupping to the blades, then you
will have to determine and use the "Doodles terminology" for this blade
and condition, as it does not fully meet the requirements of "Doodles
terminology" and is thus unacceptable usage.

So,Doodles, what you are saying, is that unless the blades are totally
flat, the term "feathering" can not be used?
