Obviously not this literally... but an actual sized plane, on a huge conveyor belt running at whatever arbitrary speed would be necessary for take off. _________________ [13:09:39] <marlasinger> acid's like a pussy sore, if you keep playing with it it just gets worse. |

A plane needs wind to generate lift to counteract gravity. It will not take off. _________________ Why was there BACON IN THE SOAP?! |

That picture confirms my post. If the plane isn't actually moving, there are no aerodynamic principles working to generate lift. Doesn't matter how fast this hypothetical conveyor belt is moving. _________________ Why was there BACON IN THE SOAP?! |

It would be the same principle as flying a kite. You simply run with a kite to generate the appropriate lift necessary, then once it's caught a draft it goes crazy go nuts in the sky. |

I'm sticking with my request that we paint it pretty colors so it will look nice when the wings are ripped off and it explodes... |
