Sacred Haven of Debauchery

In the 97th episode of the show, the mythbusters tested the myth on a model airplane and on an ultralight aircraft – in both cases, the airplane took off.

Oh, too bad I didn't see that episode. Now I'll read how they explain it. So, is the air really that viscous? Let's take a look.
Nebо has a cool picture, but I have an even better one in mind (well, maybe just a little bit better :)). It's on a poster on the highway near Mytishchi; I should take a picture of it.

Ah, I read it; it's much simpler than I thought ))) The airplane doesn't gain speed by rotating the wheels; it gains speed by rotating the turbines. Sooner or later, the wheels will start rotating faster than the runway, and the airplane will take off. They shouldn't have overlooked such a small but important detail.
