that's exactly were i got confused...as Garyb and others said, the wheels just will turn faster to the degree the conveyer dictates -not accounting the melting rubber :-D

well then - plane eventually nosedives into belt and some parts take off backwards ;)

If the belt motor packed in suddenly, the plane would shoot forward & straight through the passenger terminal before take-off :D

Why?
Because you were breeding a dwarf . . and you weren't done yet?

Met Napoleon Murphy Brock and Roy Estrada at a few Nth American festivals a few months ago - great blokes, if you miss Frank, check their band "The Grande Mothers" - that stuff gets me off the treadmill quicksmart :D

lol :D
their Beeeeeeeeeeehhh...BOB tango accentuted quite some smokes when we took off an hour or two from lessons at friend's place close to the highschool :D
Roxy and Elsewhere was one of the favourites, as was Darkside, Softmachine and the Canterbury crowd... some Emerson and Weatherreport... and if we needed a push to get us back to the classroom Colosseum's Lost Angeles often did the job.
It was a good time - but I don't miss it actually - life goes on, and so you do :)

cheers, Tom

its all bout PULLING power, not pushing. If the propellers was to push the air backwards it would be on the back of the plane, right?
