Can a Plane on a Treadmill Take Off?
"Doug" posted the exciting message
oups.com: What is keeping the airplane's speed up with the conveyor belt? The propeller. Said propeller moves air. Air causes lift. The problem is more complicated than it seems to be at first read. Well, if it only took the propeller then you could set the brakes, apply full power, and lift off at zero ground speed.
