Where's mythbusters when you need 'em?
They were already asked to look at this myth, and they refused because they said any moron could understand that the plane would takeoff without a demonstration.

Why do airplanes have wheels Einstein?
So mx doesn't have to re-skin the belly every time the ham-fisted sky monkeys land.
Are those wheels powered?
(I won't answer that-you have to figure it out)
What does the powerplant of an aircraft push against?
(I don't give a flying frack at a rolling douhnut if it burns gas or kerosene-it doesn't matter)
Have you ever seen a floatplane take off going upstream on a river? Yeah, they get into the air just fine. Takes a little longer but they do just fine.
Now I want you to go to the gym and do an experiment. Not really, since you are obviously not an expert you shouldn't do this. Not at home or in someone else's gym. In fact, the illustration that follows is just that...an illustration. Do not do it. IMHO You shouldn't even be out in public unsupervised!
Get on your tread mill and crank the speed up just as fast as you can run. Then grab ahold on the pedistal that has the odometer and heart rate thingy on it. Run like a hamster on a wheel untill you are starting to get your runner's high...
then with both arms pull on the pedistal as suddenly and violently as you can!
did you move???
Do you have any contusions or lacerations? Bruises? Well, have a shot of tequilla and consider yourself lucky to be alive!
(surely no-one here is dense enough to do this!)
Again, do not try this at home...you are not an expert and you don't know what you are doing...clearly and above all else you know not what you are doing.
I'm surprised some of you can get to the airport alive...let alone find your way back to your computers! Did you all go to embry riddle or Purdue?
hehehehehe...
I can't tell who's funnier. The guys lobbing in the sarcasm or the people who are legitimately arguing the point of this sillyness.
Gup
