British Airways set new speed record for transatlantic flights

The transcript discusses the record-breaking subsonic flight of British Airways flight BA112 across the Atlantic, aided by Storm Sierra. The flight maintained a speed of Mach 0.86 and reached a top speed of nearly 825 mph, arriving at Heathrow nearly two hours early. The jet stream significantly boosted the plane's speed and reduced fuel consumption. The flight was faster than a Virgin Airways A350, which also benefited from the jet stream.
