it will not take off. using the example from the other board, he is saying the engine will eventually move the plane forward, but this is an impossibility. it goes against physics.

if all the conveyor did was keep pace with the wheels, then it could be true, but it doesn't say that - it says the conveyor will move at a speed equal to the plane's speed, which will keep the plane stationary. if the plane is stationary, then it cannot take off.

good thing some of you went to college. but i think some of you need to ask for a refund...
