At least according to the BASSA fibs, that's where the aircraft were...

As BBB suggested, the West Base at Hatton Cross would be the first parking place. I remember in December 1999 when lots of flights were cancelled before the Millennium, that the West Base was full, with aircraft wedged in there like a giant tessellating puzzle.
