I thought "heavy" was simply a designation that indicated that the plane was not a "light aircraft" (i.e. Cessna, etc.). I thought all passenger jets (everything from DC-9 and up) was a "heavy".

Heck, I work for Boeing and sit in between two airport runways and don't know the answer to this. Ironic. :>)
