Just from the audio, I'd guess in the 4-500mph range.  It's getting up to the speeds where you don't hear it until it's right on top of you.  741mph (IIRC) is the speed of sound at sea level at STP.  Of course, it's a jet so most of the sound is to the rear, so what do I know.  It's freaking fast, that's for sure!!!
