Default Use of 16 Left

Am not sure if I have got the right name, however, yesterday was at Brighton and noticed Air Pacific 747 take off in southern direction from what I refer to as the "third runway".

For wahatever reason, I always held the understanding that 16Left was limited to A330 and below - have never seen a 747 in that neck of the woods.

Has there been a change ? Was it a case of the plane was lightly loaded and therefore OK to use 16Left ?
