You guys are going nuts about this... :?
Didn't read through all of it, only the first page and then I skimmed through.
The wheels could be spinning up to (infinite) speed and the engine's thrust would still propel the plane forward as soon as enough power was made to create motion.
Airspeed is the key to getting a plane airborne.
So yes it will move forward on the conveyor belt no matter the speed of it and it will take off.
