Thankyou, that is exactly the situation a sensible commander should never contemplate the practice, not to an Aerobridge in a busy closed in area.
I only ever said it "could be done" to an open quiet big empty apron such as Rockhampton. When I saw it done there were no other Aircraft around with only an Engineer and Marshall waiting on the Tarmac.
Having said that I wouldn't do it....
