Nice broadside of a 757 John....

At ATW I'm sure I have been under the plane at least several times loading it before its either Indy or Memphis departure.

@ken kemper. Thank You Ken. I love the 757! All around great airplane. Never quite receive the recognition it rightfully deserves. I wish Boeing would have kept the line open, and invested in upgrading the aircraft with newer engines, new wing, beefed up landing gear, updated cockpit. Look what Airbus has done with the A321. Boeing felt upgrading the 757 would eat in to the bottom of the 787's market share I guess...especially the 757-300! Boeing should have hung in there with the 757. I guess they felt the 737NG & MAX could do 90% of what the 757 could do. Boeing shot themselves in the boot on that one.

You might find this interesting, and this guy knows a fair bit. Give it a watch.
