i think it will lift off and be stationary in the air shortly off the ground till the turbines give it enough speed to move forward.

the earth is spinning in circles a lot faster than a plane can move, and we still lift off every day.
What the ****? No!

The treadmill creates movement of air over the wings? Ahahahahah
