These devices increase the plane's lift so it can take off at slower speeds. When I say "speed" I mean airspeed (relative to the air). So, theoretically, a plane could just sit there and take off into a 160 mph wind.

I've always wondered what's the ideal speed for a plane like a 737 to takeoff.; The takeoff speed is based on the weight of the airplane which varies. But you can think of it as a speed between 135 and 155 knots or so. ... Take a look--It's at the 1:14 point: ... $209 -- Upscale Hawaii Resort at $100 OFF - published by Travelzoo...

The calculation of take-off field length involves the computation of the distance required to accelerate from a stop to the required take-off speed, plus a climb segment. Since the acceleration distance is typically about 80% of the total distance, we first consider this portion.

So then, is there some non-linear effect that comes into play at higher speeds? I contend that there isn't. The wheel friction obviously doesn't cause any problems for planes taking off on normal runways, so at least up to the rotational speed necessary to allow the plane to take off, we can discount the wheel friction.

eh...get a model plane, put a piece of paper under it, and pull back. the plane WILL move with the paper. why? because there is a force applied to it. and now imagine the apper moving at near light-speed. you think the plane's gonna take off without ruining its wheels?
