So theroetically, yeah I gotta use that word atleast once when talking physics, if you had a constant headwind moving quickly enough to produce instant lift. The plane would just take off? I.e that video?

Don't want to ask the dad. He is the physicist and he will give me meaningless physics scenarios. I want lift speeds. Come on 450, you fly an Embraer, I fly on one once a month. At what speed Mph/knots do you get enough lift to sustain flight?

Sounds like I am talking gibberish.
