Can a Plane on a Treadmill Take Off?
"cjcampbell" wrote in message
oups.com Still, it seems counterintuitive to me that if a plane is sitting on a conveyer that is moving backwards at exactly the same speed (I assume they mean groundspeed here) as the airplane is moving forward that the airplane will move forward at the same speed as if it was not on a conveyer at all. Why does the conveyor belt speed have anything to do with the airspeed of the airplane? -- John T http://tknowlogy.com/TknoFlyer Reduce spam.
