@pabsan07 Dunno about that Chuck Yeager is still around and kicking so that saying is a bunch of fodder. He is old, bold, and one of the badest mofo's to ever sit in a cockpit.
The 757 is one of my favorite aircraft, Awrsome vid! I had no idea they could turn on a DIME like that! That pilot must have been feelin' some serious G's (for an airliner)!
The B757 is my favorite airliner. I've flown in it for four international flights plus one more domestic flight. It's got elegance plus a sportster appearance.
I'll have to agree with you there. When we first got these aircraft and they started doing their handling display, we couldn't believe the noise this thing was poking out, let alone it's performance on the final climbout. Since this vid was taken, the a/c has been modified and the engines uprated to produce even more power, but I haven't seen a handling display since.
Ya reckon ?? I also filmed the "fly by then vertical" but got sick of people commenting that it was fake. Now every man and his dog has a ripped off copy on Youtube saying it's going vertical - hardly, the climb out angle during these displays is 45 degrees.
@ejvideos07 nice i kinda figured that...ppl dont appreciate aviation like they used to...and skrew negative comments they are just haters!!! ppl obviously dont know what they talkin about if they think thats fake..you did good man!!!
@erad5 The RNZAF has two of these aircraft and they've been modified for a combi fit - mixed passenger and freight in various configurations including full freight and full passenger. A large cargo door is on the left front side. NZ doesn't have a requirement for midair refuelling. The 757's are used to transport people and freight all over the world in support of exercises and operations, and have recently done two trial flights down to Antarctica - landing on the ice.
@xterrasesc... I guess it could be called overpowered - but I don't hear any complaints about that from anyone... The two RNZAF 757's have now had their engines uprated to give them even more ergs.
I feel privileged being around these machines, multi million dollar equipment and they thrash the arse off them every air show for your entertainment. GO KIWI's
When they started flying, I heard B757s described as a "Tactical Airliner". They apparently have a healthy (don't know the number) thrust-to-weight ratio.
What can you say about an aircraft that shares the same RB 211 engines as the 767, but weighs nearly 15000kg less. I'd like to have seen Tex Johnson demo one of these. =)
Flew the 757 for 5 years and still get a shiver down my spine when I watch it fly!! I've flown many different jet airliners and the 757 is hands down the best.
wow! I loved the bit where you've stuck in the 'crank up the volume'. Oh such sheltered lives we lead as domestic passengers - none of this airforce style takeoffs with tight banking turns #8 )
and that pilot, went home, sit on the couch and watch some tv...i mean how insane is that? is there any more in this life than playing around with a 757?
Yeah, I'm guessing it was empty because the 757 has power to spare! However there's another video on youtube of a 757 going near vertical and it was a lot steeper than this one.
I fly frequently. Just once I'd like to sit with the pilots in an empty plane and let them show me what those things can do. Just one time. Aviators are lucky SOB's. I say that with the utmost respect.
A limousine with sports car peformance. Those Kiwi pilots think they're back in the 50's in Spitfires with Griffons. But you must admit those RB211's make the aircraft come alive. Very nice.
WOW!! I get to fly in one of those, in July.. I was wondering what it looked like... - I wasn't looking forward to the flight, but after seeing this - I think I'll be ok now...
It depends on the VLE (maximum speed with gear extended) of the aircraft. I think the VLE of the 757-200 is around 270 kcas and this aircraft isn't going anywhere that fast with the gear down.
No. I'm currently serving so seeing aircraft buzzing around all day isn't a novelty. Ohakea's turn next year. Running Airshows is exhausting work. I guess the 757 put on a good show ?
Great aircraft and great video. Camera angles were very good and there was none of that annoying shake. Well done. I really didn't know the 757 was so graceful. 5 stars.
Hard to say. I could open up a can of worms by suggesting too high a speed, but I would hazard a guess that it's somewhere around 200 - 250 knots. This pass was for the low cloud base version of the display so the aircraft didn't need a lot of speed to execute the final climbout.
To bad this isn't a conventional 757, its an RNZ Air Force 757, which isn't filled with all the seats of a passenger 757, its missing a lot of "guts" compared to a passenger 757, and notice they do specific things to create drag to achieve the aerobatics they do, landing gear down, flaps down, etc.

Not so, my friend. This is a regular 757-200 with standard RB211 engines, complete with vip seats, standard seats and galley. The aircraft config isn't changed for a handling display.
