    1. I’m not a pilot but what is the two take-off field lengths for? one for one type of Pratt=Whitney engines and the other for another type of Pratt whiteny engine? if so if you are contemplating constructing a runway to handle the 757-200 you’d need a runway 7750′ not 6000′ like I was suspecting.. hmmm?? Width of runways still 100′? just checking

      1. Every engine brand and type has a different performance, and so take-off fields will be different; runway widths are dependable on type of aircraft; please read following link for more information on runway widths.

      1. Diameter of the fuselage: vertically 4.01 meter (158 inch); horizontally 3.76 meter (148 inch), both are exterior measurements

      1. Hi Dalton,

        I did add all engine types where required. If you are looking for a specific thing you are looking for, please let me know.

    2. I don’t understand. Why boeing doesn’t modernize 757-300 like 737-800 to 737-8. 757 Has a higher chassis and van carry bigger engunes. 757-3 with bigger and more economical engines like im max. Similar like in cs500/220-500

    1. Yes but when observing an aircraft fire melting wiring, plastics, and insulation produce black smoke as well as the jet fuel.

  1. According to your info, the PW’s cause the 757 to have greater range then the RR powered ones. It was my understanding that it’s the other way around. That’s why RR powered 757’s are more preferred for over the pond flights. I know on paper the PW have that advantage, but actual performance wise, the RR’s win.

  2. Thanks for all the info!!
    Have you any of this information of the 737-800?
    I’m doing a comparison between the 737-800 and the 757-200 and there is some data missing.

    1. Hi Piluci, thank you for visiting the website; I do not have info about the 737-800; I advise you to visit the Boeing website; it may have the info that you are looking for. Or maybe the following website may help as well: http://www.b737.org.uk/

  3. please tell me about dimension of spoiler length and breadth ? how it is calculated with respect to wing dimensions.

  4. Sir
    I want to Know which cargo aircraft having maximum payload of 20000kg -30000kg of short range any one can say

  5. Would anyone know of any second hand Boeing 757-200 passenger aircraft’s and cargo aircraft’s available for sale, please do kindly inform me with full specifications and pricing.
