OK getting confused now.

Doesn't the prop generate its own airspeed (as such) by spinning?

If so then isn't it creating an airflow across the surface and therefore create its own horizontal lift called thrust because the static pressure in front of the prop is less than behind it gets (for want of a better word) sucked along the direction of travel. ???
