Cannot see how they'll manage that in FRA with the distances that have to be traveled and the sheer volume of traffic you can get there.
You are missing the point that has been made by various people. Times quoted are from the aircraft arriving on stand, and setting the parking brake, to the time the brakes are released in readiness for pushback. They are not the landing and airborne times.
Flight times between Manchester and Heathrow have been extended by 10-15 minutes over the last few decades to allow for airfield and enroute holding delays.
It is therefore possible, presuming that the ground handlers are quick enough, for a 20-30 minute turnaround to be attained. Time will tell whether it is realistically feasible.
