Quietest Cockpit

Would like to hear from those Boeing types, which has the least aerodynamic noise in the cockpit.

It would be close but i think the MD90 may be correct, any one else. Does any one have actual noise levels on modern types?

MD-11 by a wide margin. Of the original Boeing products, the 777 is the most quiet I believe.

As a passenger: MD80/90 and B777. Airbus has more engine vibration....

And what about the A320 cockpit ?

I fly B757 now , wich is pretty noisy due to the recirculation fans, but i am wondering about Airbus cockpit noise.

Cheers.

Re: Quietest Cockpit

The quietest cockpit that I've rode in by far is the B777.
