The plane will move forward but not enough to gain enough lift. The wheels on the ground fight the force of gravity, until the plane has enough forward momentum for the wings to produce lift. Now the wheels are not fighting the force of gravity as hard so the engines have to fight it harder. That's my story and I'm stickin to it, until someone posts something that makes it look bad.
