Sky Interior 757 retrofit
Does Boeing really offer a Sky Interior retrofit for the 757? As far as I know Boeing's first-party retrofit is only certified for the 737NG. There are however some third-party retrofits that resemble the Sky Interior that are certified for the 757 family, such as those from Safran (which is installed om most of Delta's 757-200 fleet).

Chronology suggestion
In the history of the aircraft it mentions that Japanese sales overtures failed in '82 and the first Asia region customers was Singapore in 1987. As this comes in the late '80s section it might read better to start with the information that Singapore became the first Asian customer in 1987 after initial marketing attempts during the launch in 1982 failed, with sales demonstrations to Japan airways not generating any orders.

Adding an "Operating History" section, and updating the article generally
I noticed other aircraft article such as for the Boeing 727 and Boeing 747 have "Operating History" sections in addition to the development sections. I think this article could really use having that broken off, as a lot of the writing in "Development" is much more suited for an "Operating History".
This would also be a nice place to fit in a "Retirements" section, as airlines such as American have retired the 757, and as United has announced retirement plans. 4300streetcar (talk) 03:29, 21 September 2024 (UTC)
- The section is named "Operational history" per WP:Air/PC. The aircraft project has generally not used Operational history for commercial aircraft since they can often have numerous and varied operators. -Fnlayson (talk) 15:39, 21 September 2024 (UTC)
