Along the lines of how many pheasants could a pheasant plucker pluck if the pheasant plucker was plucking pheasants. No.

I take it you haven't heard the one about how much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?

You mean

How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a wood chuck could chuck wood?​

Or the earlier

If a Woodchuck could chuck wood, how much wood would a Woodchuck chuk?

And an earlier answer

I suggest you ask a pheasant plucker.

As far as I can see the question wasn’t answered. Perhaps you can quote the answers posted in this thread.

 

[mistyoptic]

I think the pheasant plucker‘s daughter is to blame. She was caught trying to train a woodchuck to chuck wood

I heard the sound of a small aeroplane today. On looking up at the sky it looked like it had one engine, not two. It didn't seem to be going fast. In fact it was moving quite slowly. My thoughts were what is the minimum speed an aeroplane must travel at to keep it in the air? 🤔

Pretty slowly many micro light aeroplanes travel quite slowly and if into a breeze could fly backwards over the ground!

Surely in most cases the weight, width and length of the plane will determine how much speed and power is needed to keep it in the air? 🤔

Just like some cyclists I know.

Indeed. A plane needs a certain speed to produce lift over the wings. The minimum speed to achieve lift is referred to as the stall speed. Google “aircraft stall speed” for more info.
