The Return of the most infamous HB thread of all time... :D

[Ziggy]

I considered Bre's box one of the most infamous threads of all time. Might have been before your time though.

Man o man were her early posts during the Andy years classic......butt plugs and all:p

Myth busters did it with a piper cub. Barely an airplane. All engine, paper and wood. The power to weight ratio was off the charts. The original thread dealt with the idea of a 747 on a treadmill. So lets keep this conversation limited to a real plane. Not toys that are one step above an RC plane.....

No matter how you scale it, the properties are still the same.

The wheels are not powered, the propeller is. What if we take the wheels off and use floats in their place and point the plane up river

Sorry, for the purposes of this argument, it has to be limited to wheels only. But tell me, with out wheels, how does the prop move forward. If they are turning 100mph due to the movement of the treadmill, how are you ever going to move forward when you can maybe generate 100mph without the treadmill...??

A friend has those pix and more, he's trying to get 'em out the the old modem now. I hear that Tom Brown is working on the old system trying to retrieve them for us all to see again, Right Here on Hot Boat!!

Then again, While talking with Tom today he mentioned that Wendi banned him for this site. Too much competition I guess.

Those pics should stay in the long lost files, honestly. Not something that would be productive today.....but the memories will be lasting til alzheimer sets in.

Not too sure that they would jive so well with the new and improved "family Friendly" Hotboat, but feel free to text them to me....

It will need to overcome any drag induced by an outside source and when the plane reaches V2 it will be off. And safely I might add.

It's history man and you cant' stop something that has already happened! They're coming!! I'm sure there are plenty of people that will allow Tom to use there login info. for this little bit of history.

The neighbor girl gave me a little white pill, said it would help me sleep. At the first sign of dizziness I decided to come back home and lock my doors, she's bigger than me!! I wish I had my pit bull about now!

As mentioned, the wheels and their speed have nothing to do with lift. If lift plus thrust is greater than drag plus weight the plan will accelerate until they are equal or climb. And long before the drag of the wheels could overcome the thrust the plane will develops lift which will reduce that drag to nothing. Even a fully loaded 747 can climb at over 500 feet per minute. As soon as the wings start flying the treadmill becomes a none factor.
