Well, yesterday it happened. I was cruising from Dallas to Atlanta at 17,000 feet, West of Atlanta near the Vulcan (VUZ) vortac. I picked up a hefty tailwind and managed to squeak out a 300 knot ground speed. That’s about 345mph. That’s a first for this plane! The picture shows the ground speed on the Garmin G1000 MFD; it’s a little out of focus due to a little chop. Fast is fun. ‘Nuff said.
