Did 412 kts G.S. in a B1900D in level flight one night between YUL and Quebec City. There were several planes that night where ATC was asking "aircraft types".

Last summer, eastbound out of Island Lake, MB I got 194 kts over the ground... in a C185 on floats!
I thought I was gonna get a nose-bleed! There was a low-level jet stream kickin' around that day at 2500', made for a fast ride. Consequently the plane needed a new paint job after that trip, as it started peeling off at around 180kts.

For me it was 700 knots for about 1 minute in a 727-200 with a winter maritime tailwind. Lost in Saigon, you hold the record from what I've heard.
