Standing start Vs Rolling start.

For passenger comfort a rolling start is preferable. However some critical takeoffs mandate a standing(static) start. Anytime the brakes are released PRIOR to reaching target takeoff thrust you are doing a rolling start. The crew decides whether it will be a rolling or a standing start.
