Was just curious to what Vref is on a 75 in full landing config on final? Reason I ask is due to a flight last night. I had to push down on the brakes to keep sepration between us and them.
 
I think it's around 123 knots or so (a controller mentioned that figure to me), but perhaps a real live 75 pilot could correct me. I just fly behind them on final all the time.
 
I've been jumping on a 757-200 for the last few months getting home.. I was surprised how slow a ref speed they have... Hell, my 1900 has a max ref speed of 116 fully configured.. Not a whole lot slower than the 75.
