Default Re: Will the plane takeoff?

Oh yeah I almost for got. You can test this is the air. I was flying a cessna 152 practicing stalls, slow flight and spin recoveries. And found when in slow flight if the winds aloft are faster than your V-speed and you face into them you can look at your ground track and you are actually flying backwards and at the same speed as the winds aloft your plane stays stationary, BUT YOU ARE STILL FLYING!!!!
