It wont fly theres no air going over the wings so theres no lift........ :rolleyes:
What would stop the plane from moving foward? The thrust isn't created from the wheels so it doesn't matter how fast the ground is moving.

Of course it will fly. The plane is producing thrust at the body, not the wheels. It doesnt matter whats going on at the wheels. If it was a car with wings, NO it wouldnt take off.
I hope you guys are kidding when you say it wont take off. :rolleyes:

The plane will crash without taking to the air but the runway will accelerate at twice it's normal rate, take off, exceed Vne, and then crash also.

Ding ! no air no lift. air has to travel across the wing to provide lift period !

See!........... :crossx:
If the plane had sufficient power, it might be able to take off with full brakes applied by stripping out the gears on the conveyor freewheeling the belt up to takeoff speed.
A treadmill moving in the opposite direction of the plane, but at the same speed as the plane will cancel out all movement of the airplane, making it stand completely still. This will cancel out all airflow over the wings, thereby cancelling out all lift. All you end up with is the propwash...which does not produce lift...only thrust.
Now if the headwind is going the same speed as the airplane's Vr(speed of rotation), it will, however that would be one hell of a storm to fly into.

I concur....

Doing a little reaching there Tom.............. :p

Hey if he's a good pilot he could stab the toe brake on one side , spin the plane around and use the conveyor speed to sling it airborne. :D
