    just give up you fucking morons.

    to sum all this up, the answer is NO -- the plane will NOT fly.

    In order for ANY LIFT to be created with a plane, there needs to be MOVING AIR passing under the plane's wings involved in the equation, which obviously isn't there.

    /thread.

    now stfu.

    What's preventing the plane from moving forward, gaining speed, and creating lift?

    this:

    The plane moves in one direction, while the conveyer moves in the opposite direction at the same speed as the plane.
    therefore the bitch is stationary. a.k.a. not moving forward.

    The wheels are free spinning, the treadmill can be going 10 TIMES the speed of the plane and it still won't effect it any way, it will only make the wheels spin 10 times faster but the plane will still propel itself forward just like any other runway.
