THE HIGHEST GROUNDSPEED CAUGHT ON CAMERA

Ever had that feeling of that perfect tailwind, resulting in such a high groundspeed that you were thinking:

"I wonder if anyone has ever flown that fast?"

Well, this is the way to find out!

Take a picture of that special moment and share it with us, so we can all enjoy it. We'll put it into a database together with some more information, maybe even a personal note of yourself about that day, and let's see when (or if) anyone will ever be able to improve your speed record.
