you will find that most of the younger ATCO's coming into the job couldn't tell the difference either between a 757 or a BAC1-11
That's right Rymle -a typical old ATCOsaurus comment. There are fifty required types ATCO Trainees are required to have a reasonable knowledge of, & as the dear old BAC1-11 doesn't feature in that list, since they're banished for being too noisy...there's not much point knowing what they look like, is there...
