Ahhh looked at your graphs there beachnut. Of course! It can only show groundspeed not kcas. So we can know that it was at approx 500 knots groundspeed for quite some time but cannot know what the other various iterations of speed were such as kcas or kias. What is apparent is this pilot was not using the normal care that pilots of 767s do when descending since this is an aircraft that can over speed fairly easily. Its almost as if he were a relative novice on this type and/or had complete disregard for the safety of craft and occupants.
Such recklessness may well have stressed the aircraft and caused permanent damage to the airframe. He should be fired or severely disciplined.
I recall the video of a crash of a B52, the pilot had put it into a 90 degree bank, its wings were bowed severely but it was contact with the ground that did it in.
The B52 was in need of speed, the guy stalled it, he was showing off.
Flying for UBL airlines is the final reward.
Going too fast low can do like you said, damage the aircraft. Bend parts, put permanent sets in the skin, rip off parts not up to spec, like gear doors, panels, etc.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rodan don't let Vmo stop you from escaping from ...
VMO = 360 KCAS/.86M is the limit for normal operation. But the plane does no fall apart a lot altitude going very fast.
On 911 we have an idiot pilot, aka a murderer, test flying a Boeing at speeds no sane pilot would do unless it was for safety (aka running from Rodan, escaping an idiot trying to ram you, etc, ). Sane because the company would find out and fire you. There is also an speed limit by FAA of 250 KIAS below 10,000 feet to give small planes and the large jets a chance to see and avoid, a safety of seeing issue. Military planes which have a need to fly faster for "flight", have a wavier, and why a tower might say, wow, that must be a military flight - (but the wavier is usually only 50 knots or so, but a lot of military go a lot faster out of inexperience, or I don't care, like not thinking - unless there is a big thunderstorm racing you home and you only have 7 minutes of gas left and prefer a runway instead of a swamp, keep your boots clean).
175 was going twice as fast below 10,000 feet. Flight test by a nut proves Boeing jets can go over 500 knots and not fall apart. Balsamo can't fly a heavy jet, he has no ATP. Idiot pilots fly better than Balsamo, who brags he and his fellow failed pilots can't hit a building in the safety of a simulator.

That guy was moving. .8MACH at 10,000 feet.
Balsamo keeps presenting the fake Vg diagrams with the structural failure limit below all the terrorist speeds on 911, except flight 11, it hit real close to Vd, which Balsamo thinks is within 5 knots of the plane falling apart, but 175 proved him wrong. Then he has no conclusion. Too stupid to make any conclusion. 11.2 g was not a big enough fail, so he made it 34 gs. Not sure why he makes up dumber lies, guess his audience, his core members are not very smart.
