apparently there's a big debate on whether a plane will take off from a treadmill. so, rather than argue about it in the other thread, just vote. the mythbusters episode airs tonight and the poll is public.

Will It Fly?
- Thread starter NO-BlkLightning2K
- Start date
If you vote NO, please post up your name any why you think it won't fly so we can make fun of you after the show...

There's no way. The plane needs air flowing over the wings to take off.
exactly.
you have got to be kidding me. a plane sitting stationary will never take off, i don't give a shit how fast its wheels are spinning. btw, does anyone have the vid of the f-16 power braking?:rollseyes
yes there is, because we will all finally see that it won't.

You are going to be king Idiot.
1st for this thread.
2nd.... thinking the plane wont take off.
how much experience do you have with aircraft? if your answer is zero, stfu.
The plane will blow up and kill everyone. The end.
no air flow so I say no until they add a high powered fan
Watch this dummy..It has already been proven before mythbusters.

is this the father/son experiment?
pretty much proves it flies on a scaled down version.
i will be posting up after MB tonight to laugh at all the ****tards who do not know physics and how things work.
^^^it would appear that i've been looking at this from the wrong angle.
I can't wait to laugh at Black lightning. He knows aircraft. Although all you need is a basic grasp on physics which apparently he lacks..
^^^since the experiment wasn't detailed at all, i thought they were doing something a bit different with it.
how about you just have some humble pie and admit you were wrong. Its written pretty plainly. What could you have possibly been thinking they were talking about.

NO, Reason:
You need to have air flow over th wings for lift. cant just sit there with no wind and expect a take off. Its common sence. Unless of course there is some sort of twist to this activity

your right about the common sense part. but thats it.

^ well what happens to a plan when there isnt sufficent air flow over the wings?
It goes into a stall
