So lets say I know my little RC plane takes off at exactly 25mph. So I
crank up the treadmill to step up to 25mph so I can keep the RC plane up
on the treadmill, the plane is completely stationary in regards to anyone
standing next to the plane but when the treadmill hits 25mph and my
little RC plane is staying even with the treadmill you are telling me I
can pull back on the elevator stick and the plane will take off? I don't
think so.

The scenario you suggest is impossible. The RC plane will accelerate
regardless of how fast the treadmill is running. Your "little RC plane"
will NOT be "staying even with the treadmill". It will take off, just as
it would from a normal runway surface.

And it doesn't take a video of such an attempt to prove it. All it takes
is a person who has a minimal education in physics and (key point here) is
willing to listen until they understand, and someone else willing to
explain it. You clearly fail to meet either the first or second criteria,
or possibly both, since we do have the third criteria met here in the
newsgroup.

You are disrespectful of the various posters here who have made an honest
effort to explain the situation to you and others.

Man you are a dick. This has NOT been adequately explained or there would be
no question about it. If the plane is not moving on the treadmill but rather
keeping up with the speed that the treadmill is moving (yes planes DO have
throttle controls) the thing is going to takeoff with no air moving over the
wings? NO WAY.

This is because you refuse to bother to read the wealth of information on
the topic that already exists. Until you have done so, it would be a waste
of time for anyone to bother responding to any more of your assertions or
questions. I know that I won't.

Thank God for that, because you are a prick. Oh yeah, *PLONK*!
