    Maybe the plane would take off just a smidge sooner because none of the energy/thrust put out by the engines would be wasted energy put into spinning the wheels against the ground while getting the plane up to speed.
    Exactly…. Just imagine a boat plane or snow plane. That’s also why the conveyor belt had to be as long as the runway.

          What's next? Does .99999999 to infinity = 1. ?

          Yes it does.

                Huh. Aerodynamic epicureanism…

                Chicks dig that, you know.

                  No. No wind going past the wings to make lift. If it were the case, instead of a winch when you get stuck, all you’d need are flip out wings.

                      the treadmill is not going to counteract the thrust of the engines. the plane will not stay stationary on the treadmill regardless of what the wheels do. standby for takeoff.

                        It depends on how long the runway is.

                            An airboat is caught in a very strong current which just happens to equal the boat's top speed. When the boat is at top speed, it is thus stationary to an outside observer on the riverbank. Same with the 747.

                              The plane might move forward or backward. It is unknown it it is anchored. The conveyor belt has a limit in length. Therefore the plane will fall off the belt.

                                Sure it can. belt is as long as the run way. So what if the wheels are being spun by a belt. the engines will send the plane up in the air as normal.
