Hence the reason an aircraft propeller will
appear to be revolving slowly backwards at times.

Not when being observed directly. That only happens in movies and video
due
to the interaction between the imaging rate and the rotation rate of the
propeller.

Wrong again you clueless twit.

When observed directly under artifical light that "flickers", the most
obvious being a strobe light, but there are other types of artificial
lights that have flicker.
