That depends.  If plumetty was used in arms from our period, then the 
College will allow it, given adequate documentation of that fact.  

If it's a made-up field treatment, then I agree, it might be hard to get 
it past the College of Heralds.

Where did the original poster see that blazon?  Was it an SCA coat of 
arms or a contemporary one from our period of study?
