That's a bit of a confusing term, isn't it? 'Co' normally means 'in agreement/associated etc. Alternatively it could be an abbreviation so that gives:


Co-rotating: different engine/prop combinations rotating in the same direction
Co(unter)-rotating: different engine/prop combination rotating in opposite directions
Co(ntra)-rotating: same engine, props rotating in opposite directions.

In what context was the term used?
