No, but you see your car on a "treadmill" and it doesn't go anywhere - no matter that the speedometer says 60 mph.

The resistance to overcome for the plane comes from the air on the wings.

The resistance to overcome for the car comes from friction on the tires.

Big difference....

No. There's never any movement so there's never any air pressure on the wings. That's why planes have to "take off" - that is, drive forward to a certain speed before going airborne.

My car doesn't have rockets strapped to the roof. If it did, a treadmill wouldn't do a damn thing to keep it in place, even if the speedometer were reading "0".
