re: Can this 747 take off?

Thank you. A plane stationary, no matter if the hypothetical treadmill was going the speed of light, can’t take off because of Bernoulli's law.
It clearly says the treadmill goes as fast as the wheels. So no matter how much throttle the pilot applies, the plane stays stationary.
And to think that some assholes downvoted me on this.
The air on top of the wing has to be going faster than the air below the wing- hence why a wing is shaped like it is. This creates lower pressure above the wing and then takeoff.
Thrust doesn’t make you fly assholes. Low pressure above a wing does.
It’s why a hang glider works.
