T3 BA to AA minimum connection time?

Anyone knows what it is...?

I'm booked on a Finnair flight that now seems to have switched to "Hi Fly for Finnair" and the reviews are not great, so want to call AY to be rerouted on BA/AA. I'm looking at flights with 1h05 connection at LHR T3 (BA 795 connecting to BA 1516).

I'm a but confused as:
-- this ticket is bookable on ba.com
-- Heathrow's "connection planner" says this is under the MCT (but doesn't specify what the MCT is).
-- BA's website says that MCT for T3 to T3 is "approximately 60 minutes" - never seen MCT stated as an approximation (http://www.britishairways.com/assets...Terminal-3.pdf)

A separate question is whether 65 minutes at T3 is realistic even if allowed?
