From: IAH 737 CA
Please tell me you are joking about the no GPS thing? I'd rather fly an old s-UA 757 with Pratt's out to Hawaii than one of our new 737-900ER's any day. I've noticed since the merger we have added tons of 757-300 flights from the West Coast to Hawaii and have enjoyed a few of these Kona/Maui layovers myself. Even though it looks like I'm going to the 737 in a few months I hope marketing puts nothing smaller than a 757-200 on Hawaii flights going forward.
Dump the 75 and bring back the 10. A WAG in the 757 is not my idea of a good time.

My error. I actually thought the 707/727/737 used the same tube and the 757 was new and larger, Turns out I'm wrong on both counts (maybe the 707/727/737 use the same nose). 707 is a larger fuselage (even different from the KC-135) and the 727/737/757 are all the same size (757 sure seems larger).

However, the floor on the 757 is lowered slightly compared to the 737. This gives the appearance of a more "roomy" cabin.
The only difference being the length.
