    Could you get him to elaborate on what is altering the thrust/motion situation? Why exactly does it not have enough thrust? Did someone do something to the engines? (Or did he mean it would not have enough speed?)

    Extra friction = slower plane = less uplift = no take off.

    "All that energy used to move the conveyer is,well, moving the conveyer belt, but has little effect on a high powered vehicle"

    disagrees. It's quite a drag and planes are very heavy, causing this drag.
