The 757 is one of the best looking twin jets IMO, That aircraft looking in mint condition for 35 years old, The landing was a greaser! 👍

I remember the prototype 757 being at Luton and it was like a futuristic rocket ship compared to the 1-11's, 737-200's parked close by. I spent many happy years despatching the 757's at Luton.

That 757 and its sibling, the 767, were the peak of Boeing aircraft engineering. With a pair of RB211 it just doesn't come sweeter

That had the original displays in back when I flew it. No speed tape, just the old ASI. Shame Boeing never built an NG version of it. Had an outstanding power to weight ratio.

Lovely video. My first ever plane ride was on an Air 2000 B757 from MAN to FAO in 1991. So to watch this holds dear memories for me.

Incredible aircraft! I traced its serial number and seems this flew with China Southern and even CAAC for a little bit. Incredible history and it’s sad she may be gone after this summer. Looks brand new! When this aircraft is gone, this will be incredible archive footage. Thank you for this great video!

I flew the 757 for ten years. It’s a pilots aircraft , an excess of power even fully derated. An ability to stop in runways as short as 1800m , due to more wheels at the back = more brakes ! It’s too thirsty now - we burnt iirc 3.5 T an hour which makes it uneconomic for pax , not so much for freight …the 739 was a bit of an embarrassing replacement , couldn’t quite manage the routes , hence why jet2 kept some . What replaces a 757 ? Another 757….

The 757 and 767 have absolutely huge and spacious flight decks. Other more recent aircraft look a bit more cramped up front.

Most of its sisters have been flown to St Athans and scrapped. Nice to see it still in use but unfortunately it must be on borrowed time.
