Question Connecting in MAN from AY to AA?

Didn't find anything on this or other forums, so here goes.

I'm bringing some relatives from HEL to the states connecting in Manchester. Having never been to MAN myself I have a couple of questions.

First the facts. They're flying HEL-MAN-ORD, first leg on AY (AA codeshare) in Y cabin, connecting to AA in C cabin. They arrive on Monday 3/31 at 920am to MAN with 1035am departure, thus a relatively short connection time of 1hr 15min. Airport website indicates AY uses terminal 1 and AA terminal 3, but the maps are unclear on how the connections would work.

- Is 1 hour 15 minutes a reasonable connecting time from AY to AA at that hour of week?
- Do they have to exit the secure area going from T1 to T3?
- Any other help / hint / links to make this doable for two retirees with less-than-perfect English?
