Re: think about this...
I retract my original answer. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
It is so obvious it is complicated, if that makes sense. I suck at life. |

Of course the plane has to be moving relative to the air around it (or the ground if that makes it easier). [/ QUOTE ] this is it, you need wind over the wings for lift!! a plane cannot get in the air without lift! wtf, i can't believe noone gets this |

[ QUOTE ] It's very much like a float plane taking off from the water (where there's also negligible friction). [/ QUOTE ] No it is not. It would be like a float plane taking off from a river that is moving at an opposite speed of the floats. WOULD NOT TAKE OFF To simplify: 1. Plane on a runway. Takes off 2. Plane with locked wheels on ice. Takes off. 3. Plane with locked wheels on runway. Doesn't take off. Note that #3 is the same problem that OP phrased. |

Explain how the wheels will move at the same speed as the plane in this example. |
