Which aircraft flown by BA would you rate the most thrilling on takeoff, climb and landing? Do they both accelerate at pretty much the same rate when at MTOW? Do pilots use a lower thrust rating on the 777 on takeoff?
How do you compare the idle reverse noise on landing??

-Climb rates on the B777 are higher than the B744 at MTOW.
"Do pilots use a lower thrust rating on the 777 on takeoff?"
-Full throttle take-off is seldom used.
"How do you compare the idle reverse noise on landing?>"
-I find RR engines on the B744 quieter than PW or GE on idle reverse. I find idle reverse on B777s quiet, or rather, I can't hear anything from the engines in the cabin.
