Pretty much the wheels could be moving forward at lets say 50 mph, while the treadmill moves backwards at 50 mph, but that doesn't mean the airplane is stagnant, its still moving forward. I think... This is too damn confusing. Sorry for jacking your thread |

Yesterday you said that I was ok with you, so you are okay with me. Just because we don't agree on rappers or football teams doesn't mean we cant be civil.

I don't know why I'm still going.
If the plane had a rolling start, then the treadmill caught up to the speed of the wheels, technically the wheels and treadmill could be moving at the exact opposite velocity of eachother, yet the plane would still be moving forward due to momentum, right? |

If the wheel are free to spin, the plane would not move at all and therefore the wings would produce no lift.

DUDE. Donger. If you put a plane on a treadmill and engaged the engine, it will create thrust and move the body of the plane, regardless of WTF the wheels are doing, off of the treadmill, and take the fugg off.
The plane DOES NOT get it's speed from the wheels. It gets it from thrust created by the engines (prop, turbo prop, or jet, typically). When the engines are engaged, the wheels would just spin faster than the treadmill and taxi off. Posted via Mobile Device |

"that a plane could take off under its own power while a treadmill was under it and moving in the opposite direction" In that scenario, the forward motion of the plane is precisely the opposite of the force being applied by the treadmill. Therefore, they cancel each other and the relative ground speed of the plane is zero = no lift = no flight.
