  • speed of sound is not the same at all altitudes or temperatures. The plane probably has a large tail wind hence its very fast ground speed. Its TAS would have been 280-320knots i should imagine?

  • @MrRevolution53 It might be possible that the aircraft had a moderate tailwind which caused it to travel at that ground speed.

  • @ken92660 1244km/h is 8km faster than the speed of sound o.O

  • @MrRevolution53 It's the ground speed, not air speed.

  • @MrRevolution53 We often fly with 737 and never exceed 840 groundspeed !

  • 661 mph GS.

    Quite the tailwind.
