Hi AeroTech,
About 90% rolling.
We use flex method for reduced take off power settings. At LGW we plan for runway access at B1 and do the performance figures, but 90% of the time get access at A1. On those occasions we do the rolling take off entry track, anticipating our take off clearance. If it doesn't look like we'll receive it, then we slow and stop on the centre line well before the B access point.
At other runways where TOGA is required, then we do the full length, time consuming line up procedure.
