Dear friends and followers, welcome back to my channel!

With a huge 220 knot wind speed in the core of the Polar Jet Stream, the weather on Saturday 8th February 2020 made it a record-breaking day for transatlantic flights. Golf Charlie India Victor Papa, a British Airways Boeing 747-400 flying from New York to London flew the normally 6-and-a-half-hour flight in just 4 hours and 56 minutes, arriving a massive 80 MINUTES ahead of schedule!

It’s important to remember that despite the 747 reaching a peak groundspeed of 716 knots respectively 825 miles per hour, almost 130 knots faster than the speed of sound at FL350, it did not at any point fly supersonic and your immediate question is how?

That's what we will be looking at in today's video :)

Thank you very much for your time! I hope you enjoy this video!
Wishing you all the best!

Your "Captain" Joe
