The point being that the propeller creates airflow, not the engine, sorry.

Dont know if this even has anything to do with anything though. This question makes my head hurt. I want to agree with you, but I also dont.

Its sort of like when you are looking at a drawing of a cube, and you cant tell which side is the top...it keeps switching.
They both produce the same kind of thrust. Donger is wrong.

I have a feeling you're arguing just to argue, as a result, I'm not going to argue anymore. You have never once stated how the treadmill will overcome the thrust of the engine. No matter what you say, the thrust will push the plane off of the treadmill and create groundspeed to create lift.
