Die D-AIXR, ein Airbus A350-900 der Lufthansa wird von einem Flugzeugschlepper von der Parkposition zu einem Rollweg (Taxiweg - TWY) "geschleppt".
Dieser Schlepper fährt direkt an das Bugrad heran, umschließt es mit einer speziellen Vorrichtung und hebt es leicht an. Eine Schleppstange wird nicht mehr benötigt..

An Emirates A380 after pushback. Despite my best efforts to get the taxiway centreline down the centre of the shot, I ended up with this (there were aircraft moving all around me so time was limited).
Seenotrettung ist #Unverhandelbar
Menschenrechte sind #Unverhandelbar
Demo in Berlin, 07.08.2021
Demonstration unter den Motti: - Seenotrettung ist #Unverhandelbar - Free the Ships - Stop the Pushbacks - Menschenrechte jetzt! - am 07. August 2021 in Berlin.
Mehrere hundert Menschen zogen vom Paul-Löbe-Haus bis zum Rosa-Luxemburg-Platz.
Veranstalter: Seebrücke Berlin gemeinsam mit einem breiten Bündnis (Seebrücke - Schafft sichere Häfen, Sea-Watch, SOS MEDITERRANEE, Mare Liberum, Sea-Eye, RESQSHIP, Amnesty International)
Die Demo in Berlin war Teil des europaweiten Protests „Seenotrettung ist #unverhandelbar“. Auch in vielen weiteren deutschen Städten gab es dazu Demos und Kundgebungen.
Protestiert wurde ganz aktuell auch für eine Ende der Blockade und für eine schnelle Zuweisung von Häfen in Italien für die zivilen Seenotrettungsschiffe „Sea Watch 3“ und „Ocean Viking“ mit über 800 Menschen an Bord, die schon viele Tage lang mit den Geretteten an Bord auf See ausharren müssen.
Am 06. + 07.08.2021 hatte das menschenunwürdige Warten endlich ein Ende und die Schiffe konnten in Italien anlegen. Die Geretteten durften an Land…
Aus dem Aufruf des Bündnisses:
„Allein in diesem Jahr ertranken bereits über 800 Menschen im Mittelmeer. Mehr als 14.000 Menschen wurden völkerrechtswidrig von der sogenannten Libyschen Küstenwache zurück
nach Libyen gebracht, wo ihnen Folter und schwerste Menschenrechtsverletzungen drohen.
Die zivilen Seenotrettungsorganisationen füllen seit Jahren eine Lücke, die die EU niemals hätte entstehen lassen dürfen. Die Lücke, die durch fehlende völkerrechtlich gebotene
Seenotrettung entsteht, fordert viele hunderte Menschenleben jährlich. Dies ist seit Jahren offensichtlich, doch die EU und ihre Mitgliedstaaten tun alles dafür, die tödliche Grenze auszubauen und Menschenrechte systematisch zu missachten: Notrufe werden ignoriert,
illegale Rückführungen koordiniert, Schiffe blockiert und Retter*innen und Geflüchtete angeklagt.“
„Wir wollen nicht von Land aus zuschauen, wie Menschen aufgrund staatlicher Ignoranz ertrinken, auf Schiffen unnötig lange ausharren oder rechtswidrig nach Libyen verschleppt werden. Als Europäer*innen wollen wir nicht nur das rassistisch motivierte Sterbenlassen an den EU-Außengrenzen beenden, sondern auch Verantwortung übernehmen – für Fluchtursachen ausgelöst durch unsere koloniale Geschichte, unsere gegenwärtigen Handels- und Wirtschaftspolitiken und
für die von uns maßgeblich verursachte Klimakrise, die bereits ausgebeutete Länder besonders hart trifft.“
„Seenotrettung ist #unverhandelbar!
Daher fordern wir von der aktuellen und zukünftigen Bundesregierung, dass sie vehement an der Umsetzung folgender Ziele arbeitet:
1. Alle zivilen Rettungsschiffe freilassen & die zivile Seenotrettung unterstützen!
2. Die Unterstützung der sogenannten Libyschen Küstenwache sowie alle Push- und Pullbacks im Mittelmeer sofort beenden!
3. Ein europäisches Seenotrettungsprogramm etablieren!
4. Sichere und legale Fluchtwege nach Europa einrichten“

Alongside the United Nations General Assembly, key stakeholders from the global private and public sector gathered at UN Women's HeForShe Summit to reinforce commitments, share innovative solutions, and increase collaboration across sectors to achieve gender equality.
With a growing pushback against women's rights, institutions and individuals have an increasing role and responsibility to play in the pursuit of gender equality. As a key moment along the midpoint for Generation Equality, the world's leading initiative to boost investment and implementation of gender equality, the HeForShe Summit calls for everyone to play their part and respectfully disrupt the patriarchal status quo that holds us back from closing current gender gaps.
"It should particularly alarm us that the attitudes of young men seem to be going backwards, unfortunately," said Sima Bahous, UN Under-Secretary-General and Executive Director of UN Women. "A UN Women-supported survey showed that 58 per cent of young men aged 16-19 believe that men are better political leaders than women. How then will we achieve equality of women's leadership? Nearly 1 in 4 young men believe that there are acceptable instances to hit a partner or spouse. How then will we end the scourge of violence against women?"
Ms. Bahous praised the HeForShe Champions from across government, business, non-profit and academia for stepping forward and taking action as gender equality advocates and allies. "Our corporate champions have increased participation of women in their Boards to a minimum of 40 per cent. This is commendable", she said.
The Summit was marked with a spoken-word performance by poet, activist and artist, Rupi Kaur, who premiered her unpublished poem "to believe in equality", as well as a musical performance by pianist, composer and activist, Chloe Flower.
Throughout the event, leaders reiterated a resounding call to action to respectfully disrupt. Michael Roberts, CEO of HSBC US and Americas, and Maha AlQattan, Group Chief Sustainability Officer of DP World, urged business leaders around the world to introduce mechanisms for accountability in making gender equality a business priority.
Dr. Joy Buolamwini, Founder of the Algorithmic Justice League and author of Unmasking AI, and Dr. Sasha Luccioni, recently named one of MIT Technology Review's 2023 35 Innovators Under 35 in Artificial Intelligence, both reinforced the need to balance progress of Artificial Intelligence with the threat of perpetuating and deepening gender bias. Masculinity experts such as Richard Reeves, nonresident senior fellow at the Brookings Institute and President of the American Institute for Boys and Men, as well as Michelle Terry, CEO of Movember, called for a new model of masculinity – one that inspires solutions and reframes the gender equality conversation away from a zero-sum game.
The recent UN Women and UN DESA report, "Progress on the Sustainable Development Goals: The Gender Snapshot 2023" shows that progress on gender equality is way off track and demonstrates the need of an additional USD 360 billion in investment per year to achieve gender equality and women's empowerment by 2030. The mission of the HeForShe Alliance is not only to inspire strategic investment, but ultimately to respectfully disrupt patriarchal structures that sustain and perpetuate gender bias and its manifestations throughout industries, governments, nonprofit organizations, universities, and everyday lives.

Ready for pushback? Jetway retracted? Check. Beacons? Check. Two hours late? Check.
Actually, I'm glad it was late, or I would have missed it.
actually, i was cloud watching & the pushback happened to be there :D
Cloud streets are long rows of cumulus clouds that are oriented parallel to the direction of the wind.
They’re formed by convection rolls of rising warm air and sinking cool air. Rising warm air cools gradually as it ascends into the atmosphere. When moisture in the warm air mass cools and condenses, it forms clouds. Meanwhile, sinking cool air on either side of the cloud formation zone creates a cloud-free area. When several of these alternating rising and sinking air masses align with the wind, cloud streets develop.
Cloud streets are technically called horizontal convective rolls.
