Could "Helicopter Blender" also include plane propellers?

No, the title's too specific. Feel free to propose Propellor Blender in YKTTW, though.

Incidentally, I didn't even realize this was a trope. The whole premise seems so self-evidently ridiculous I can't imagine how it became popular.

See you in the discussion pages.

The title could be changed to include it, couldn't it? Wouldn't it be better than making a whole new page? After all, the only difference between a propeller and and a helicopter rotor is the orientation. Sorry if I sound stupid. I'm new.

The Avenger in Gran Theft Auto V definitely can kill with its huge propellers, being a game version of the V22 Osprey. In fact, it is *more* efficient at killing Opressors (the flying bike) by ramming, with them turned forward, in plane mode. The *schlink* noise is even more pronounced. Considering it is heavyly armored, bumping with the flying bike does barely no damage to it.

Being half way between an helicopter and a plane, the huge blades definitely help.

This message regarding 28 Weeks Later might well dispell any doubt about the ability of *military* helicopter rotor blades to chew people up, murderous infected or otherwise. It might not account for civilian helicopters, though. Should we update the page to reflect this information?
