I must not have something set right. I get to about 345 knots on the airspeed and I get an overspeed warning. Can't find where to set that, I know a 777 and such go faster than that.

Thanks

What altitude does this happen at. look at your ground speed. It should be at about 500 knots which is the wpeed that you are really traveling over the ground in nautical miles per hour.

Thanks for clearing that up, you are correct. When I took a 737 up to FL320 It made alot more sense. Max speed was more like mach 0.83 I was doing these short hops at lower altitudes and it didn't make sense to me. I'm not a pilot so this stuff wasn't making sense.

Thanks a bunch for your help!
