If the belt and was moving at the exact same speed as the plane, how was the plane able to move forward? If I run at 10 mph on a treadmil that is going 10mph, I don't move forward, I stay stationary... If I speed up my pace to 11 mph while the treadmil is still at the orig 10 mph, I move forward on the belt, if I slow my pace to 9 mph, I fall off the back...

The movement of the plane has nothing to do with anything touching the conveyor. The thrust from the jet engines will push it forward while the wheels spin free. We're sort of pre-wired to think only in terms of movement based on pushing against the ground... that's not how planes operate.

Ahhh... I didn't even think about the movable wheels not having any affect on the thrust. If the wheels were locked, and the thust was on, yes... the plane would be standing still...

that plane flys by sheer awesomeness alone.

If you try to fly a plane off of a treadmill, it fucking explodes. The plane explodes, the treadmill explodes, the people in the plane explode. EVERYTHING FUCKING EXPLODES!!! First they all explode into smithereens, then the smithereens explode too, until finally, the sub-smithereen particles explode, and then catch on fire (obviously, very, very small fires). Then the tiny little fires explode. That's what happens. JC
