Boeing 757-200: Designed as a replacement for the 727 trijet, versatile 757 can fly transatlantic and other long-haul routes as well as short-haul routes equally efficiently. The 757 shares a common flight deck with the 767, simplifying pilot training requirements, as well as a common cross section with the 727, 737, 707 and 720.
The 757 was launched in March 1979, with first delivery in January 1983.

Boeing 757-300: The B757-300 features a 23 ft. 4 in. / 7.11 m fuselage extension over -200. This fuselage stretch allows a 20% increase in seating and a 40% increase in lower hold freight capacity.
The 757-300 was launched in September 1996, with first delivery to Condor Flugdienst on March 10, 1999.
