1. Aerodrome Reference Code (wingspan / gear span):
757-200 wingspan: 38.05 m
757-300 wingspan: 38.05 m
This puts it into Code D (36–52 m wingspan).
2. Approach Category (Vref speed):
That falls into Category D (141–165 knots).
Conclusion:
The Boeing 757 (both -200 and -300) is an ICAO Code D aircraft, larger than 737/A320 family (Code C), but smaller than widebodies like 767, 777, A330, etc.
The C-130 just stuck out to me because I had read about it the day prior, lol. Also, I could’ve sworn the game version is the C-130J, since the code in game is C30J
Tell this to the F70 
Who’s been mis categorized then
Very well could be! If that’s the case, would probably be that they labeled it as such but used a C-130H or earlier model, just like how most of the current C-17 model is actually the Chinese clone (especially the engines). Anyways, I digress haha
Yes but my point it, I kind of understand some planes being miscategorized to accomodate stand allocations for now, but as a temporary fix, I don’t see a problem with the 752&F being a C plane for a while the 753 can be a D
Is it really? Haha, maybe the Y-20 is coming sooner than we think. It does look fairly accurate, so who knows. But this is off topic, so back to the 757
Yeah I was comparing it to the C-130 purely based on wingspan, as I’ve seen some of the longer planes of any classes park like.. crooked? You can see it with some stands and the CRJX, for example, so I wasn’t really considering fuselage length.
Now that we’ve seen the B752 model in full in the lastest dev blog, it does make me curious if that is the default configuration for all player 757-200s (Pratt & Whitney engines with 6 doors/4 overwing exits) and if any of the other variants of the 757 will have Rolls Royce engines or winglets by default, or if there’s any plans to allow players to choose engine, winglet or door variants in the future?
The 757-200CF is a nice addition, I wonder if that’ll be for airline liveries only or unlockable alongside the B752F?
Isn’t it a different cargo door entirely?
I’m not sure how much different it is compared to a run of the mill B752F in terms of door sizes or statistics, all I know is it’s a converted aircraft so I’d imagine window outlines still visible but they are blocked out?
