I agree with what you said, the hydraulic systems - especially when lowering the flaps/slats - are quite distracting. In terms of the single-engine taxing, I know the de Havilland Dash 8 was designed to taxi on one engine, and I don't think it had the PTU issue.
Boeing vs Airbus?
Sort:
777x soon releasing
Boeing. Although I think a-350xwb is kinda cool
Y’all travel with plane I use car
Ain't Boeing the company responsible for killing whistleblowers or smth?

I only ever fly on Boeing planes, so I can judge (the airline I use only uses Boeing, probably cuz they are cheaper)
