Best I have done is Mach .86 (True airspeed of 490 kts) plus a tailwind in November, from Tokyo to Vancouver in the jet stream was 720 ground speed. GPS is ground speed.

As Günter says, 1000kph is easy, 720kts = 1333kph!

Got a good video of the functions and some routines using Bernhard's GPS and dynamic functions.
