The heavier aircraft ,due to weight has higher kinetic energy,gets to descent speed(best l/D ratio)early.Light a/craft stuffs the nose down to reach it's L/D speed,once there meanders down some time later.Both reach the same spot(about 75 miles from FL350).
Used to talk of this Circa DC8 in the 70's..
