Just another few points that popped into my head re parking aircraft on 23L
  • As previously mentioned, anybody needing to get to/from the aircraft will need an escort as few are permitted to drive there
  • The airport is running on skeleton staff, probably not enough people to tow aircraft over there
  • Should the airline go bust, MAG are left with a few expensive lumps of scrap metal taking up the runway. These things can't easily be towed around, look how long it took the TCX A330's to move from the 60's over towards T2
  • In the grand scheme of things, MAG don't actually charge a lot for aircraft parking. Barely seems worth the effort for them imo
