I used to fly with an ex. RAF VC-10 pilot who took Maggie Thatcher to Washington in a very fast time.

They were late leaving UK and a aid to Maggie asked if they could make up time so they could arrive before Pres. Mitterand of France.

I think he said they cruised at .92, landed with minimum fuel and beat the French.
