Description:
The Boeing 757 is a single-aisle, medium-sized, low operating costs, twin-engine airliner suitable for short- and medium-range routes. It also features high fuel efficiency, low noise level and increased passenger comfort. Rolls Royce's RB211-535 and Pratt & Whitney PW2000 are the two high-bypass-ratio turbofans currently available to power this aircraft.
The Boeing 757-200PF, also known as -200F, is package freighter derived from successful 757-200 airliner. It can accept up to 15 cargo containers or pallets on its main deck and shares components and solutions on the 767 freighter. The cargo main deck is accessed through a large cargo door forward of left wing.
The first 757-200PF was delivered to UPS in 1987. It is powered by PW's PW2037 or PW2040 turbofans.
In 2004, Boeing announced its intention to cut off 757 production favoring next generation 737 and the cutting-edge 7E7 Dreamliner. On October 28, 2004, Boeing delivered the 10,050th and final 757, a Shanghai Airlines 757-200, at the company's factory in Renton, Washington.
