In celebration of the 100^th Anniversary of Aviation Development in Hong Kong, an aircraft pull event was organized by the Civil Aviation Department on March 17, 2011.

292 adults and children came together and muscled their way to a world record by pulling four planes weighing a total of 474.72 tonnes at Chek Lap Kok International Airport, Hong Kong. Besides, 100 members of the disciplinary and security forces working at the airport also pulled a 218.56-tonne B747 aircraft forward for 100 meters. Mr. Alexander Haeusler, Deputy General Manager of Regal Airport Hotel, was proud to have participated in this event, witnessing the two new Guinness World Records of the "heaviest combined weight of aircraft pulled simultaneously" and the "heaviest aircraft pulled over 100 meters by a team".

In honor of breaking the new Guinness World Records, a ceremony was held in the ballroom of Regal Airport Hotel, where the World Record Certificates were presented to representatives of the participants by Ms. Angela Wu, Adjudicator of Guinness World Records Ltd.
