Having operated the GE for some time the Roller requires a little re-education. The throttles during taxy are very sensitive. 2-3 mm of movement can increase the N1 by 10-15%. Also setting the throttles to the "stand up" position on the Roller will give you about 80% N1 compared with 55% on the GE. The differences mentioned above, together with others ned careful handling!
