class DatumPlane(Datum):
    """The DatumPlane object has no direct constructor; it is created when a Feature object is
    created. For example, the DatumPlaneByPrincipalPlane method creates a Feature object 
    that creates a DatumPlane object. 
    The DatumPlane object is derived from the Datum object.
