Do we know when the remaining TCX aircraft will leave the airfield?
Is there any way the TUI MAX's would be parked over at the west apron instead in a closer formation?

I believe that by using the 23R holding bay they actually lose less space. If you think about it, the majority of departures are either from 23L or can use the intermediate departure link M1. There are very few flights that actually need to backtrack to use the full runway length (the TORA is only 330m difference if using M1 rather that full length).

As always I hope that helps.
 
Thanks @Scottie Dog
I watched a jet2 A330 depart from even further along 23R a few weeks ago going to Tenerife and seemed to rotate before the second high speed turn off...it's amazing how much less runway is required these days

• Pushback towards Intermediate Holding Position (IHP) L1 and then tow forwards to IHP D3 before tug release. A ‘nose wheel pushback limit marker’ will be painted on the taxiway for guidance purposes. An Airfield Operations Safety & Compliance Officer (ASCO) must be in attendance for ALL A380 pushbacks from Stand 12 to safeguard the aircraft wingtip from vehicles on the apron road at Stand 10 and to check tow-bar wheel stowage is correct. 4.4 Stand restrictions
4.4.1 Night stopping aircraft are to be parked on Stands 61 (all centre lines) and 62L during the night works.
4.4.2 Stand 62C is available for ICAO Code E aircraft throughout the works utilising ASTL Lima.
4.4.3 Stands 61 and 62 are available for ICAO Code F aircraft outside of working hours only, due to ASTL Lima being maximum ICAO Code E and TWY Delta night closures.
4.5 ICAO Code F Divert Restrictions
4.5.1 ICAO Code F aircraft diverts will not be accepted Sunday to Thursday, between the hours of 22:00L to 05:00L, due to the TWY Delta night time closures.

OAN 124/2019 – RECONFIGURATION OF AIRCRAFT FUEL HYDRANTS ON STANDS 73 & 74.
OAN REF:- 124/2019 DATE OF ISSUE:- 14/11/19 EFFECTIVE DATE:- 18/11/19 EXPIRY DATE:- 03/04/20
1.0 SUMMARY
1.1 A programme of up to three-months work to reconfigure aircraft fuel hydrants on Stands 73 & 74 to align them to the new MAN-TP stands, numbered 925, 927 and 929.
2.0 PROGRAMME
2.1 The overall programme of work will commence on Monday 18th November 2019 with a scheduled completion date of Friday 3rd April 2020.
2.2 The work will nominally take place Monday to Friday with daily working hours of 07:30L – 17:30L.
2.3 MASHCo will commence on site on Monday 9th December 2019, when GallifordTry have completed the initial concrete excavation and removal.
3.0 SCOPE & LOCATION OF WORKS
3.1 The overall scope of work will include:
• Site set up,
• Saw cutting and removal of concrete,
• Dig to existing pipe,
• Survey work,
• Install six spurs on to existing hydrant,
• Radiography of welded joints,
• Pressure testing, drying and 7-day soak testing,
• Removal of fuel and decommissioning of line to VC8,
• Install Lean mix Concrete and PQ Concrete,
• Joint Cutting and Sealing after curing period,
• Installation of Emergency Fuel Switches (EFS) at head of stand.
3.2 All work will be located within a demarked work area located across Stands 73 and 74. 3.3 Access to the Valve Chamber (VC8) and the fuel hydrant pots on Stand 72 will be required when the decommissioning takes place (likely to be February/March 2020). Work will take place at night and can be carried out with an aircraft on stand if necessary.
4.0 OPERATIONAL IMPLICATIONS
4.1 Stand Closures
4.1.1 Stands 73 and 74 are closed H24 for pit and duct installation and will remain so until all works are complete, and the stands reopen in the new configuration; scheduled to be spring 2020.
4.2 Ground Service Equipment (GSE) Parking
4.2.1 The GSE areas at the head of the stand will be unaffected by the MASHCo works. However, when GallifordTry move on to their next phase of work at the head of stand to remove existing infrastructure and to install the new high mast lights and fixed electrical power units in the realigned positions, the GSE will need to be temporarily relocated. All affected companies will be notified in advance of this happening.
4.2.2 During decommissioning, a fuel hydrant tanker will be parked airside, 3m from the Critical Part (CP) fence, in the GSE area on Stand 74 for approximately 3 days. The hose and hydrant pot to be used (either 274C or 274D) will be fenced locally to protect them from any GSE traffic.
4.3 Apron Road System
4.3.1 A portion of the apron road system, between Stand 74 and the GSE area will be diverted through a demarked route (through the existing GSE area) for the duration of the works.
4.3.2 The road from Stand 74 across to Stand 113/116, on the new Pier 1, will remain available.
4.4 Aircraft Fuel Hydrant System
4.4.1 Stand 72 will be without fuel for approximately 10 days, when the decommissioning takes place (likely to be February/March 2020). 4.4.2 Stands 73 and 74 will also be without fuel for this period, however, these stands are closed H24 at the moment and will remain so until they are returned to service in the new configuration, therefore they will have no operational impact.
4.4.3 As the programme of work progresses, there will be a requirement for an overnight Terminal 2 (T2) aircraft fuel hydrant shutdown whilst the drain down and decommissioning takes place.
4.4.4 Any fuel hydrant shutdowns will be subject of a separate OAN, which will be issued nearer the time (likely to be during January 2020).
5.0 LOW VISIBILITY PROCEDURES (LVP)
5.1 Overall, the work has no impact on the airport’s ability to operate during periods of low visibility.
