The problem with the original question is that is said they both travel in the opposite direction at the "same speed"

yes cant you see it doesnt matter how fast you move the paper, the kid couldve whipped the paper out twice as fast as the skateboard move, the skateboard would still have covered the same distance at the same speed

yes but it still wont matter, its not the wheels making the thing go forward, its the engine producing thrust

the only factor which will affect the plane taking off, regardless of conveyor belt or not, would be wind resistance, NOT moving conveyor belt

Yes, because the wheels are just free-wheeling. I'm pointing out where the confusion arose.

he isnt but like i said he cuoldve pulled it out as fast as he could which would be a lot faster than the skatebaord is going and the skateboard would have moved exactly the same as it did there

And it is not going fast enough to take off and the cord would stop the fan

no discussion needed, if any idiots claim still the plane wont take off, they should be ignored hence not leading to any discussion
