So this closure is really just for new paint markings to be applied with SOU ending up with stands 1-4 then 6 onwards or for continuity the stands will start at stand 2?
By contrast Luton has more stand markings than simultaneously usable stands for flexibility allowing more aircraft to use more stands when the aircraft are smaller, as can be seen by the centre line arrows. Would Southampton not do this leaving them with a 4/5 stand arrangement? Best of both world then.
