As far as I know, Convair CV-990A is the fastest non-supersonic commercial transport to have ever been produced.
Reading an AA FCOM/Limitation it's written that her MMO was slightly below M.92. However, during a chat, some guys told me that her normal cruise speed was M.94 (?!?!).
Sorry, same old question: does anybody really know the actual VMO/MMO and cruise speed normally used when she was considered the fastest airliner? Was she faster than a Citation X?
Thanks!
