At JM's place

Once the plane has some force pushing it forward, the wheels will just spin with the conveyer. If they measure the speed of the plane and apply that to the conveyer, the wheels will just be moving at an incredibl speed in the opposite direction. The only force the plane needs to overcome is the friction between the tires and the conveyer. If the wheels were directly linked to the planes jets/motor, then it would not work, but since they are not, the plane can still move forward.
