Which, BTW, was easy to do because the 757, 767, and 777 all use the same flight deck structure (aka "Section 41"). That's why the nose profile of the 757 and 777 look a little odd (and why you step down into the 757 flight deck).
I never thought the 757 nose looked odd. It has the same flat-ish underside as the 320. It is odd that you step down into the 757 and up into the 767 though.

What exactly is this section 41 that you speak of?
