No... backwards and forwards movement = the plane is standing still, even though the wheels are moving. Planes count on airflow to get lift.... you don't feel a breeze when you run on a treadmill.. therefore, no lift = no flying.

Fuck stance. Stance is for kids in skinny jeans with Justin Beiber haircuts. You don't need stance when you got swagger.

this is correct! DRAG makes a plane fly! the wind traveling over the wings creates "DRAG". without it the plane will not take off.Originally Posted by xPhantomSolx
think about it. are the wheels on the plane powered at all? no.
put a FAT A$$ fan in front of that treadmill(and boy it would have to be big) to simulate the air traveling over the wings and the mutha fooker will rise.
I can't believe some of you actually believe a plane would fly on a treadmill.
And this is where it all started...The question was asked...you said no, the plane won't fly...I say yes it will. The answer...yes it will.Originally Posted by {X}Echo419
WHAT makes a plane fly? huh? go ahead. lets hear what you "think".Originally Posted by joecoolfreak

And just for the record...I have actually flown a plane...have you? There is a reason that everyone is disagreeing with you...you don't get it...Originally Posted by {X}Echo419
did you fly it off a treadmill? ask your instructor about LIFT and Drag. and how MOVEMENT through the air achieve L/D.Originally Posted by joecoolfreak
yeah, the reason is you people don't damn get it....do ..y..yo...you?
Wrong, you don't get it. The treadmill in no way what so ever will prevent the plane from moving forward.Originally Posted by {X}Echo419

Geez....we know planes need airflow to lift....the point is that the plane will move forward and therefore have airflow. Still waiting on someone with the balls to try and prove me wrong.Originally Posted by b18hatch
It doesnt matter. the wheels are independent from everything else. The wheels will just move at the normal takeoff speed of the plane+the speed of the treadmill. the plane will use up just as much of the conveyor as it would a runway. its an easy concept, if u dont understand it, then u probably dont have much goin on up top.Originally Posted by xPhantomSolx
