Question: Will the plane fly?
Answer: No one cares because there's no freakin' reason to put a plane on a treadmill in the first place (well, unless it's a jumbo jet).

Not so much a joke but rather a concept question:

A plane is standing on a runway that can move (some sort of band conveyer). The plane moves in one direction, while the conveyer moves in the opposite direction. This conveyer has a control system that tracks the plane speed and tunes the speed of the conveyer to be exactly the same (but in opposite direction).

Drop it you both are right. But I think the problem is that we assumed that the treadmill would hold it stationary. It can't. You others who are so quick to also say, "I WAS RIGHT!" still didn't explain your reasoning correctly. Let it DIE!

and treadmills only keep items that use the ground for forward movement stationary.
