if it moves faster than the treadmill yeah... it will then just take longer for it to gain speed....

but theoretically putting it on a treadmill would cause it not to gain speed.... most are going to assume the treadmill and the plane are moving at the same speed, there for leaving the plane motionless.

obvious if i put a treadmill at it's slowest speed and i run faster than it.. i'm going to run off the treadmill.....
