If the forward speed (the planes speed relative to something stationary on the ground) is 10 mph, the treadmill is NOT going to be able to counter act it and keep it from moving 10 mph forward.

the treadmill will spin 10mph backwards, but (besides friction) It will have no effect on the plane ability to lift off.

But if the plane is moving 10 mph forward, and the treadmill is spinning 10 mph backwards, that doesnt follow the question in which it matches the "forward speed." If it is according to the number, then yes it matches...but if you look at the plane, obviously its not matching its forward speed. If it is able to match the forward speed (which is CAN NOT), then the plane would never move relative to something on the ground.

no, it is. besides making the wheels spin faster, the treadmill doesnt impact the plane at all.
