I need to book our train back from Manchester Airport for October and our plane lands at 0940 and I am looking at booking the 1044 to York. in the T&C's it says to leave
at least an hour from your flight arrival time so am I right to presume it is ok to book the 1044 as that is 64 minutes after the scheduled arrival time and be covered for any
delay.

I have had to get my ticket endorsed at manchester airport last year but that time the train I have booked was about 90 minutes after my flight arrival time and my flight was
nearly 2 hours late in.

thanks

Wheels down on the runway to reaching the train station took me 1 hour when arriving recently on a T2 international flight.

On the assumption that you are talking about TPE Airport Advance, as long as you allow 60 minutes then you are covered for endorsement for using future trains as per T&Cs.

Not much benefit in allowing longer as you (technically) won't be able to use earlier trains if you do arrive on time and speed through airport.

Will they only endorse your ticket for a later service if the flight is delayed? So will they still let you travel on the later service if the fight is on time but it takes longer than an hour to get between landing on the runway and the train station?

Do you have to put the flight details in when you book? How would they validate your flight?
