Re: think about this...

final clarification, FBD style:
wheel velocity = conveyor velocity = lim(x) as x -> infinity. this is defined by the OP and the fact that the continual (feedback) acceleration of both is inevitable.
thrust velocity + wheel velocity - conveyor velocity = net velocity
since wheel velocity = conveyor velocity, then net velocity MUST equal thrust velocity
therefore, the plane can take off, as long as thrust velocity is great enough to create lift.

holy crap i don't even remember posting this - nice to know i can still type when i'm wasted though. good for me.
