Abstract: The aeroplane includes at least a fuselage, two wings, a rear tail unit including a horizontal tail provided with two tail ends, and at least two engines arranged on the fuselage on either side of a vertical plane of symmetry of the aeroplane. The aeroplane has a longitudinal axis. The engines are mounted so as to be able to be displaced, at least in flight, on the fuselage, substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis, and the tail ends are mounted so as to be able to be pivoted, at least in flight, relative to the horizontal tail. The aeroplane thus has a configuration that changes in flight.

Abstract: A device for maneuvering ground support equipment on an airport stand. Included in the device are a moving apparatus having a system for coupling with the ground support equipment, configured for maneuvering the ground support equipment according to a predetermined trajectory; and a remote control configured for remotely controlling the movements of the moving apparatus according to the predetermined trajectory. The device also relates to an item of ground support equipment on an airport stand which includes a connecting plate configured for being coupled to a moving apparatus of the device.

Abstract: A device for maneuvering and immobilizing an aircraft on the ground. Included in the device is a moving apparatus and a remote control configured for remotely controlling the moving apparatus. The device allows a coupling of a single remote control with several moving apparatuses and/or of one moving apparatus with several remote controls. Also, the device allows an operator equipped with a remote control to remotely control several pushback maneuvers by successively using several moving apparatuses or several operators each equipped with a remote control to successively control the same moving apparatus.
