its simple.... if the tread mill and nose of the plane are faceing in the same direction then the plane wont take off but if the plane is not parallel to the treadmill then it will take off... or if the engines get up enough power and at full throttle they might be able to get the plane to lift off depending on the speed of the treadmill.... too many variables....

The turbine would move the same amount of air, whether the plane is on a treadmill or not. The lateral movement of the plane would be hampered, but it would take off just the same (air still moves over the wing despite the treadmill, providing lift). Basically this would be a viable method for shortening runways for take off, landing would still need a lengthy runway though. :-)

If the plane stays stationary on a 35m treadmill i believe thats shorter than the what, 1km runways we have now... The plane takes off just the same... |

what makes the air move (in relation to the wing), and i thought air must be under the wing, am i wrong?

Air moves faster under the wing then above which creates lift.

So are you trying to say that the movement of the ground will change the airflow? Not in any noticeable manner as proved by simple physics. The earth is spinning at over 1000 mph, so why woulnt take off distances be different from east to west? The treadmill or moving runway would have no effect other than that which would be lost through frictional increases at the wheel.

If it gains zero forward momentum on the treadmill, the distance it travels before take off is zero which is a lot less then it takes the average plane on a standard runway.

Why would it gain 0 forward momentum on the treadmill??? Even in the video it shows the plane moving forward. The plane has to travel through the "air" at a certain speed in order to have enough lift to take off. The speed the treadmill is moving underneath is completely irrelevant.
