Terrier:....You highlight my point precisely: After 6 of the based aircraft are SCHEDULED to have left I think you mean. There have been comments on these forums concerning the allocation of stand function at various airports which leads me to believe that people don't really appreciate all of the other operating restrictions which might apply. "Oh well stand 3 will be free between 2230 and 0730 so we can use that for an extra aircraft." Not the case. If only every flight operated exactly to it's schedule!
MV: Numerous airports have stand numbers missing. I think it's easier to issue a NOTAM stating that eg. "stand 7 his closed" than it is to change every other stand number in the process. If BRS had done this, 8 would be 7, 9 would be 8 blah blah and I'm lost already. Ideally BRS stands would be numbered 1 - 22, then 61 and 62 would be 23 and 24!!!
