There is a giant, 10 mile long stetch of runway with a 747 on the middle of it. The runway, however, is specially designed to move, much in the same way that a treadmill will move, in the opposite direction of the plane. Secondly, the treadmill is attached to a computer which will match the acceleration of the plane exactly and constantly, in the opposite direction.

What is the result of this experiment? Does the plane ever take off?

Yeah, and your point is?

If you're going to say that "The airplane is not moving relative to the air around it", then I suggest you look back at the posts which have already addessed that point and proven it wrong.
