Feel that push-back-in-your-seat power as the Boeing 757 roars down the runway. In this video, experience the incredible takeoff performance of Icelandair’s Boeing 757 — one of the most iconic and beloved airliners ever built.
The Boeing 757 is famous for its impressive short field takeoff and rapid climb capabilities. Thanks to its powerful Rolls-Royce RB211 or Pratt & Whitney PW2000 engines, aerodynamic design, and advanced flap system, this aircraft can lift off from shorter runways and reach cruising altitude in no time.
But there’s so much more to this aircraft: The 757 is one of the most versatile and popular airliners ever made. With a range of up to 4,000 miles and seating for nearly 300 passengers, it has been a reliable workhorse for airlines across the globe.
Icelandair, the flag carrier of Iceland (founded in 1937), uses the 757 to connect Iceland with destinations across North America and Europe.
Did you know the Boeing 757 is also known for its powerful wake turbulence? The strong vortices it generates can affect even larger aircraft — a testament to the sheer strength of this long, elegant jet nicknamed “The Pencil.”
In this video, you’ll see stunning footage of Boeing 757s taking off and landing, including the longer 757-300 variant and the 757-200 freighter conversions.
