The Northern runway at LHR is 3,900m long. That's enough to park just about 100 A320s wingtip to wingtip. With a more efficient △ ▽ style arrangement, maybe 50% more. Getting them on and off is obviously the challenge. But I don't think we would need to go there, plenty of taxiways at most airports to park aircraft.
