About 180-200 miles per hour.
At the moment it is the Boeing 747-473 (747-400) operated by Air India. However, Air India placed orders for more than 50 aircraft in 2006 (most have been delivered) including the Boeing 787. The Boeing 787 Dreamliner, when it arrives in Air India in late December 2011, will be the fastest passenger plane in India.
The accepted average weight of Jet A fuel is 6.84 pounds per gallon based on specific gravity (but varies based on temperature, additives, etc.) The Boeing 747-400ER can carry more than 63,500 gallons of fuel which is about 434,340 pounds fuel load weight. Information provided by Jet Advisors
According to Boeing's website, "the 747-400ER is now the largest and fastest commercial airplane in the sky - cruising at Mach 0.85, or 85 percent of the speed of sound."
To weigh a Boeing 747-400, the aircraft is typically placed on specialized scales at an airport or maintenance facility. The weight of the aircraft is then measured by the scales beneath each of its landing gear. The total weight is calculated by summing the weights measured at each point.
357 mph
The Boeing 747 travels at 0.85 mach or 567 mph.
585 mph
The average speed of a 747 is about 560 mph.

The takeoff speed of a Boeing 747 can vary depending on factors such as weight, runway length, and weather conditions. However, generally speaking, the takeoff speed of a Boeing 747 is around 180-200 knots (207-230 mph).
The Boeing 747-8I series has a cruising speed of 570 mph (Mach 0.855). It's maximum speed (both the 400 and 8I series) is 614 mph (Mach 0.92).
Its top speed, according to Boeing, is 609 mph
Cruising speed is 585 mph. The max speed for a 747-8 is 614mph, or 988km/h.Maximum speed = 0.92 machI recently watched a YouTubevideo of a Boeing 747 that reached a ground speed of 744 MPH (1196 km/hr). This is the highest speed that I know of that a 747 has ever flew. Here's the link to the video if you want to watch it. http://www.youtube.comwatch?v=AHrsYKTnGAUIt's titled "Boeing 747 Fastest Speed Commercial Flight".0.85 Mach567 mph (913 km/h)AnswerThe Boeing 747 cruises at around 0.85 Mach, but in answer to how fast "can" one go, the answer is that Vmo/Mmo (maximum operating speed/mach) for the earlier versions is 0.89 Mach and for the 747-400 it's 0.92 Mach.
The Maximum Take-Off Weight for a Boeing 747-100 is 333, 390kg; a Boeing 747-200 and 747-300 is 377,842kg; a Boeing 747-400 is 396,890kg; a Boeing 747-400ER is 412,775kg and the Boeing 747-8I is 442,253kg.
