An aircraft headlight (2) comprises a housing (10); a retractable light emission unit (12), wherein the retractable light emission unit (12) is movable with respect to the housing (10) between a stowed position and an operating position; and an electric motor (14). The electric motor (14) comprises a casing (15), which is stationary with respect to the housing (10); a rotor (55), which is rotatable with respect to the casing (15) and which is mechanically coupled to the retractable light emission unit (12) for moving the retractable light emission unit (12) between the stowed position and the operating position by roting the rotor (55); at least one stationary magnet (60), which is attached to the casing (15); and at least one moving permanent magnet (62a, 62b), which is attached to the rotor (55) such that, in at least one rotational position of the rotor (55), the at least one moving permanent magnet (62a, 62b) is located vis-à-vis the at least one stationary magnet (60). The at least one stationary magnet (60) and the at least one moving permanent magnet (62a, 62b) have such polarities that the at least one stationary magnet (60) and the at least one moving permanent magnet (62a, 62b) exert a magnetic holding force onto the rotor (55), when the at least one moving permanent magnet (62a, 62b) is located vis-à-vis the at least one stationary magnet (60).
