But I think that the engines in stands, such as CF6, RRTRENTS, PW4000 ETC have to be on the center line. Unlike B747 where you can have them side by side.
The GENX GE90 can have a special rotating stand which is heavy and costs a fortune, but enables them to go through the side cargo doors.
You can't beat a nose job for special loads and quick turn around.
