I don't know about the performance (well I do, though that's another story), but the Skyliner was incredibly unpopular with passengers, with its two very noisy Garretts. Many regular flyers on the GLA routes used to carry their own earplugs, in fact I have a feeling that towards the end of its brief career with BA, passengers were issued with them as a matter of course.
