If you're running on a road, then you feel the air blow against your face. Because you're pushing through it.
If you're running on a treadmill, you feel no air blow against your face. Because you aren't pushing against it (ignoring the air being moved round by your arms and legs moving).
With no significant air movement, the plane wouldn't be able to take off.
I dunno if that helps you see how I'm seeing the problem, but hopefully it might.

Whether or not there is resultant airflow is the
answer of the question, not what you have to base your argument upon.
