The Boeing 757 made its appearance in the Argentine skies, under the modality of "wet-lease", giving rise to a colorful presence of airlines, painting schemes that were the delight of the spotters of the time. It would be LAPA who introduced the first Boeing 757 with license plate LV-. Although in the end they were only two of these aircraft with own record, with its slender lines and dimensions stood out widely in the platform of Aeroparque, populated mainly by veterans Boeing 737-200 and DC-9-30. Although the pitch had 757 seats were not very generous, I remember very well how nice it was to fly these planes in cabotage, always on flights south to destinations like Trelew or Rio Gallegos. Undoubtedly the most famous "757" is the T-01, which has the privilege of being the first to arrive in the country and the last to fly.

Thus the Boeing 757 T-01 was associated in public opinion with the image of abuse in the use of public media during the last government. Together with the huge fiscal deficit, they sealed their fate.The Boeing 757 made its appearance in the Argentine skies, under the modality of "wet-lease", giving rise to a colorful presence of airlines, painting schemes that were the delight of the spotters of the time.
