I was an ATC flow controller in Australia many years ago and provided there was not much turbulence the 727-200s of Ansett (now gone) and TAA (now Qantas) would do 350 kts to 20 nm to touchdown for an ILS or visual approach and beat anything else in the sky. Hats off to those flight crews and the 727!
