Re: A Plane Problem

im in agreement with tomkat, there would be no forward velocity relative to the air around the plane, and thus no lift.
Think of it this way. If you are running on a treadmill which matches your speed, do you still feel the same air resistance against your face as you would if you were running on ground?
