I didn't think a 380 could fit between C pier and the Apron Safety Unit
Since C pier was on T1 the last time I checked and in my posting I mentioned stands on T2 and T3, I'm a bit puzzled as to the relevance of this.

In terms of clearance, the shortest distance between the C pier "satellite" and the Apron Safety Unit on the Western perimeter is roughly 300m - a little more than the full length of C pier itself.

Even with a B777-300 (length 73.9m) parked on stand 31, there would still be ample clearance.

The A380 is big (wingspan 79.6m) but it's not that big....
