Notes Enroute from Boston, Massachusetts to Ponta Delgada, Portugal on Flight RZO220 (Call Sign Azores 220).
The winds were nice for a Ground Speed record beat, and at that moment we were deep inside the Jet-Stream. No turbulence by then, but after 45 minutes it started with continued light to medium chops.
