For a brief period of time (<2 yrs?, ?-2009) Airbus had a comment in the FCOM allowing a 1 min cooldown but they reverted back to 3 mins (after idle reverse) once GE saw in service results. Last time I spoke with our GE rep the recommendation re 1 min was only on an occassional basis for safety (crowded ramp) or exceptional operational reasons.
