this is really the easiest thing… imagine wearing rollerskates and standing on a treadmill… you hold one end of a rope anchored to a wall in front of you. Now you pull yourself forward toward the wall. It wont matter how fast that treadmill moves, you will still be able to pull yourself forward. Now apply that to the prop of a plane pulling, or the thrust of a jet pushing. Mythbusters ftw ---

DVR’ed it last night. Little dissapointed they went about it so un-scientifically as far as making sure the treadmill and planes speed matched. I don’t think it’s possible for the treadmill to match the planes speed, the plane will always be able to out accel the treadmill’s speed. So good job mythbusters. I’ll accept my defeat. ---

They reworded the question… “If a plane is traveling at takeoff speed on a conveyor belt, and the belt is matching that speed in the opposite direction, can the plane take off?” Of course it will take off if that is the question they try to answer. 🙂 That takes my perception argument out of it! 🤣 YES crew for that one. ---
