If you're further back on the aircraft it will take 10-15 minutes longer. So the wait is 30-40 minutes.
Oh, it's an hour alright. It doesn't really matter what else I'm doing in that time, that's how long the wait was. (Otherwise, why not just lengthen the walking route - this would reduce the 'wait time').

If I can walk from the plane to the carousel, they can manage to drive in the same time (the cargo doors were open before the aircraft passenger doors).

30 minutes is pushing it ...
