Default Can a Plane on a Treadmill Take Off?

man this post took off like a rocket. a rocket? would a rocket get off
the conveyor?... hmmm, who cares! but it is a great mental workout...
anyone who comes up with an answer has made assumptions. but we have to
assume things in order to live, you have to believe that when you take
that next step that the ground will be there. in schrodingers cat(sp?)
the cat both lives and dies. in our world that cant be at the same
time.... its like minority report... this q is similar in a way to the
cat in the box with the poison with the degrading material. it can be
both ways, depending how you look at it. quit debating and go pet a
dog!
