Those planes might be quiet from the ground, but I flew in one yesterday from Switzerland back to the UK, I was sitting by the window right next to the engine (raised higher than on many planes, due to the higher wings), and it was the noisiest passenger plane I've ever been on! If Bose had been selling their noise-cancelling headphones on that flight I'd have bought a pair instantly!
its nickname is "the whisper jet" i went on 1 in 2005 and it was really quiet!

I'm always amazed how quiet this plane is. They go over here every day to and from London City Airport. Thanks.
