    Is there any particular reason why the 757 is so special apart from the fact that it's very old now

      Too many factors to mention here Benji, but here goes:
      She looks good!!!
      She is extremely powerful and can takeoff and land on the shortest of runways with ease because she gets the speed up so quickly.
      Pilots say she handles like a sports car in that she is so responsive and is a joy to fly.
      She takes turbulence better than many similar-sized aircraft types.
      Her durability has withstood the test of time.
      She even handles like a dream at slower speeds.
      The B757 and Boeing B767 have a common type rating and common crew qualification, meaning that if a pilot can fly one, they can also fly the other. Airlines operating both the B757 and B767 can take advantage of great flexibility in flight crew assignment. Further, both aircraft share the same flight crew operating instructions, similar maintenance schedules, manuals and inspection routines.
      Her durability has withstood the test of time.
      To sum it up in a sentence... Honestly, I still don't understand why, after so many issues with trying to stretch the B737 out of proportion, they don't just take the Boeing 757 schematics down off the shelf and build her back into the world of commercial aviation.
