i have an long time affection for the 757, wish boeing had build another 500 or more of them, and dread the day these are not on airline schedules because of the airbus 321 or something similar. I recall the takeoff roll on St Thomas, headed at the mountains and the KFC store at the end, and leaping off, climbing like a raped ape, and saying among other things. "WOW". THese have proven their worth for years, so enjoy when you can.
