Its the combination of the thrust of the engine (jets moving air which goes over the wings) and the air velocity at 175mph (air moving over the wings) COMBINED that moves the plane. Yes if the engine jets were big enough, the plane would move w/o the air velocity of the moving plane. Its like how do you turn a bike fast. You do A PLUS B. Countersteer and lean. Can you still turn w/o leaning? Yes, but is takes much more force.

Don't feel bad.... This thread was posted on just about every forum on the net about a year or so ago, and you would absolutely not believe how many people just simply can't grasp such a simple concept, even after you explain it in full. So hey at least you got it right away!

But again the real question is if the rolling equipment will be able to withstand the conveyor belt at 350 mph? Because if it fails, that plane is gonna burn in a firey crash

The jets pull air over the wings in addition to the forward motion.

If by "moving" it means moving in relation to the Earth, not just in relation to the belt, then yes eventually it will take off. Doesn't fucking matter what the belt is doing --- All that matters is airspeed over the wings. Get enough of that, and it will lift off, even if the engines are dead.

![]() I don't have the slightest clue what you're trying to say.... But the plane doesn't give a f**k about thrust, all it needs is air moving across the wings. If the plane is sitting still and there is a 175 mph headwind, it will lift up and take off. Engines don't move any air across the wings, all they do it push it forward No, they don't

I'm sure if you reached the 175mph and stopped the engines the plane wouldn't lift. You would have to increase speed. But yes air moving across the wings is the only thing lifting the plane, but we are discussing where that air is coming from.
