Default Spinner strobing as a "Bird Strike Countermeasure"
In article , says...


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.



No, he is right this time.
