Must be having a melt down there...can't even load the page.
I re-read over some of the first few pages of this one, and I have to say it's one of my favorite Texags topics ever.
FAIL.
looks like we'll wait a little longer.

Dear all,
As wbarnhill called out, I thought I should step in to what is rapidly becoming a hornet's nest. I will try to calm things down but I don't hold out much hope!
First up, for those concerned that this story has been cancelled, don't worry, planes on a conveyer belt has been filmed, is spectacular, and will be part of what us Mythbusters refer to as 'episode 97'. Currently that is due to air on January 30th.
Secondly, for those very aggrieved fans feeling "duped" into watching tonight's show, I can only apologise. I'm not sure why the listings / internet advertised that tonight's show contained POCB. I will endeavour to find out an answer but for those conspiracy theorists amongst you, I can assure you that it will have just been an honest mistake. At one point
several months ago, POCB was going to be part of Airplane Hour. Somewhere, someone has mistakenly posted the wrong listing. It will have been a genuine mistake but nonetheless it was a mistake which is unacceptable. As said I will try to find out what went wrong and hope that you will see fit to forgive the team at Discovery.
Thanks in advance,
Dan

Dan's apology is moot.
a plane needs air movement over the wings to provide lift and if the plane is on a treadmill there is no air speed so the plane would have no lift and stay on the treadmill... i would expect for aggies to know this, come on guys!

jock fails at posting pics
THE. PLANE. WILL. MOVE.
It doesn't stay stationary on the belt.
There will be air flow over the wings, because the plane will roll forward on the conveyor belt with very little added difficulty than it would on a regular runway.
The thrust comes from the engines, the wheels are free spinning.
