@codzomz It's a very efficient aircraft actually - in-fact there's nothing better in the role it plays for charter airlines. It's only because of how old the frame is getting they're replacing them with A321s and the likes of which. None of them can even compare to the ability of the 757. The RB211 is an amazing engine that can get the 757 in and out of places that is considered short for a 737.
@GatwickSpotting ya I love the RB211 its just that the frame, like said, has made it very inefficient(<=I know I spelled it 2 totally different ways) so I am glad they are changing it... my instructor told me they were doing away with it all together so I am glad they arent.. its my fav looking aircraft besides the 737-800 cause the complexity of the structure of that aircraft and its efficiency is amazing :)
@GatwickSpotting Like out of STT, I swear the runway is real short, and the 757 still made it out with some asphalt to spare, eh! Gotta love those 757s!
@codzomz dude airlines use this plane on flights that you will find 777's on. for example American airlines flies this plane on the same routes as the 777 all around south america and europe. iceland air uses the 757 on the Seattle to Kevlakiv and it's most likely fully loaded airlines work the hell out of the 757.
The photography of that second landing is just stunning. The way the sunlight caught the air stream from the wings is absolutely awesome. I have watched it over and over again. I love it. I think it is beautiful. Thanks for posting this and giving me such a gorgeous image to keep in my mind for always.
That first one is Air Finland Boeing 757-2K2 (OH-AFI) not icelandic Boeing 757-200W.. Btw awesome videos you got here and almost everyone(?) is in 720p or higher! Very nice work, keep it up! :)
@GatwickSpotting Air Finland is leased to Air Greenland coz there own 757 is grounded/outfaced in CPH....Air Greenland also fly Thomas Cook flight out of CPH
@florbor007 That doesn't mean anything. A 2x zoom camera could have more zoom than a 1000x zoom camera. My camera has 20x zoom, but I know cameras that have 5x and can zoom further.

@codzomz RB211 + 757 are my favourite aircraft/engine combo. I'm actually working on a 3D simulation of the 757 at the moment.

I dont think the Air Finland 757 is a -300 series?

No, it's a -200 series. The proportions look to be that way, and you can somewhat see "Boeing 757-200" on the forward side of the fuselage.

Yeh thats what thought. The -300 looks alot longer. Quite easy to spot the difference.
