    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propeller_(aeronautics)

    Feathered propeller on the outboard TP400 turboprop of an Airbus A400M. On most variable-pitch propellers, the blades can be rotated parallel to the airflow to stop rotation of the propeller and reduce drag when the engine fails or is deliberately shut down. This is called feathering, a term borrowed from rowing. On single-engined aircraft ...

    This is achieved by use of a constant-speed unit (CSU) or propeller governor, which automatically changes the propeller's blade pitch. Most engines produce their maximum power in a narrow speed band. The CSU allows the engine to operate in its most economical range of rotational speeds , regardless of whether the aircraft is taking off or cruising.
