Re: A Plane Problem

The treadmill is meant to move at the same speed as the plane. No power the treadmill won't move, once the plane starts to accelerate the treadmill will match this speed in the opposite direction, all this will cause is for the planes wheels to move at twice the speed of the plane itself. The wheels, and how the plane interacts with the surface it is taking off from have no bearing on it's ability to move or gain lift.
