Not sure if the 787 would be permitted even under tow. Wouldn't affect 738/A319/A320/A321 as far as I am aware (i.e. 99% of commercial traffic).
No. Would hit signature building, if there were no aircraft on main apron ;-). Even going the other way has to be escorted past easyjet hangar. I think because of less than 4.5m wingtip clearance.
