B757 Wake cat?

Hello Ladies and Gents,

May I ask is the B757 classified as a Heavy or Medium with regard to
wake turb spacing. I fly a B737 and as far as I was aware we required 2
mins seperation from Heavy A/C. ( I was led to believe that the B757 was
classified as a heavy).

We asked for 2 mins spacing tonight at LGW and were told that in the UK
the B757 requires only 1 min spacing.

Sounds a bit strange to me, but I've been wrong before. We waited two mins just to be sure.

Best regards to all.
