Thanks for that confirmation of my hatred of the 777s. My ears are still ringing 2 days after finishing the HND-LHR on NH in the 77W. In contrast, I’ve just enjoyed the 359 on LHR-HEL AY. Whisper quiet and seating in similar position (front, halfway between wing and flight deck). Those QF sunrise aircraft will be a joy - so long as they are not lightened by reducing the sound deadening insulation.
