What makes the air move over the airfoil if it's a treadmill that's moving the tires?

| I know, me too but I have seen a photoshopped poster like picture on another forum of it.

| Air moves over the airfoil by the plane moving forward. If the engines are providing thrust to move the plane @ 500 MPH, but a device under it was spinning at 500 MPH the net gain/movement of the place would be 0MPH - thus NO airflow over the airfoil, this would equal 0 lift. Now, if the engines exceeded the forward moment of 500+ MPH, then the plane would move forward which causes air to flow over the airfoil - whatever the minimum speed for take-off/lift would be would be needed to be added to the delta baseline of 500MPH plane speed to achieve lift in the above scenario. ![]() |

The engines generate the thrust that pushes the plane forward. Once the engines push the plane fast enough, the plane flies. What happens at the wheels is irrelavant. Last edited by Mikeinsmd : 01-16-2008 at 11:24 AM. | |

but its not. In your theory, as soon as a plane took off it would land again because it lost thrust when the wheels left the ground.

Damn - now I am going to have to read! ![]() Or go talk to one of my Aerospace Engineers... I look at this as the plane is trying to move forward @ 500, but the contact point for it to move forward, its wheels, was moving 500 in the opposite direction not allowing the plane to move forward because it cannot - but my bull-head is stuck with a picture and concept so I have to go and investigate ![]() How in the heck did we get here? ![]() | ||

JPC and Forestool/nhboy are on a plane that's going down. There's only 1 parachute. You have to pick who gets the chute. ![]() | |
