First 757-300 with Pratt & Whitney Engines Takes Off
On Feb. 20, 2002, the first Boeing 757-300 airplane powered by two Pratt & Whitney PW2040 engines took off from Renton, Washingotn, for its first flight. This maiden flight coincided with the first flight of the first 757 -- a 757-200 -- 20 years ago. Until this point, all of the 757-300s had been built with Rolls Royce engines. This airplane was destined for Northwest Airlines, the first Boeing customer to select Pratt & Whitney engines for the 757-300. The single-aisle jetliner embarked upon a three-month flight-test program that was scheduled to end in May 2002 with U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) certification and Europe's Joint Aviation Authorities (JAA) validation. A higher thrust version of the engine-the PW2043-also was to be certified to provide additional performance capability.
