Re: A Plane Problem
No, Jakiri is right.
The engines are creating the thrust, but the thrust is only there because of the air (Newton's third law). The thrust has nothing to do with the wheels, which although are on a treadmill, they have no part in the propelling of the aircraft.
It'll still move forward and it'll still take off, although I agree with whoever said that the wheels might fall off first.
