Can we take people’s answer and do a perma ban if you they’re wrong? I, personally, will search through every single post and make a chart of all those who say it will or won’t take off. Perma / IP ban for everyone wrong. I am 100% serious. ---

the only way to make the treadmill interfere with the planes take off would be to set the incline angle 89.999 degrees… they you will actually get a force to temporarily counteract the thrust. ---

ehh even then, you are looking at more of a rocket style takeoff ---

hey… i just thought of a benefit to offset the treadmill development cost… you could save a huge amount of parking space… if you run the treadmill in reverse at the 89.999 degree incline, it will CLEARLY prevent the plane from rolling backwards… provide the wheelspeed matching is maintained. ---

Why is it that everyone is talking about jets, and thrust and rocket like take offs, when Mythbusters is using an Ultralight? READ HOW THEY ARE DOING THE FUCKING EXPERIMENT. ---

> [@SI01](#): > > Why is it that everyone is talking about jets, and thrust and rocket like take offs, when Mythbusters is using an Ultralight? > > READ HOW THEY ARE DOING THE FUCKING EXPERIMENT. its the same though, its just safer to use that type of plane. A larger passenger plan would easily kill some people if something goes wrong. ---

> [@SI01](#): > > Why is it that everyone is talking about jets, and thrust and rocket like take offs, when Mythbusters is using an Ultralight? > > READ HOW THEY ARE DOING THE FUCKING EXPERIMENT. are you fucking retarded? 😉 Jet engines, Rocket engines, Prop engines are all methods of providing thrust through air acceleration. The only difference is efficiency and available power. Choosing one over the other doesn’t change the experiment. ---

people are agueing if the plane is moving forward then the treadmill isnt matching the wheelspeed… or the speed of the plane… ughhhh wheelspeed… currect… but speed of the plane… sure can… where does it say wheelspin speed? ---
