No, if it's not stated you can't chose what to relate it to, that's adding to the question. It can only be relative to where it was if it moved, which the question states it did.

It dosn't matter what the speed is because it is 'matched' by the treadmill. There is an equal and opposite momentum.
That's what the question said. ...> It the treadmill is made to match the forward speed of the plane, only in the opposite direction. |

As Flint is saying, there are two different ways to look at the problem. I think that scenario #1 is difficult to achieve in the real world.

Scenario #1 is not possible. That is something that you have to factor in to the question. Like a math proof, if you follow one assumption, and it leads to a contradiction, you can eliminate that possibility.

 Now, concerning Labrat's ass ... I mean bicycle analogy, one thing is missing. The airport moving walkway would speed up to counteract the push that you give the bike.

I'm so tempted to make six consecutive posts, but I'll be nice and leave it at one.
