Title: Re: "Heavy Designation"
Post by conaly on Sep 13th, 2006 at 9:44pm
Hi,
I read somewhere:
757-200: wake turbulence -> heavy, MTOW less than 255LBS -> medium
757-300: wake turbulence -> heavy, MTOW more than 255LBS -> heavy

But: ATC designates all 757-types as heavy aircraft because of the wake turbulence (->safety of aircrafts behinde the 757).

I'm not sure if this is 100% correct.
