Even if I had to get one of the handicap lifts they use and take people off 1 at a time then thats what would happen. I am not certified or trained in using a jetbridge, but by God if I had one available I would have had the F.O. marshal me in and used it myself to alleviate the emergency situation that was brewing on the plane. All I am saying is that I would have done the dance with dispatch and atc and the rampers for a few hours. But there comes a time when you have to stop playing nice and get people moving or do it yourself.
