1. A device for extraction of bleed air from flowing air in an aircraft engine, comprising: an adjustable air inlet positioned at or in an area of a wall of the aircraft engine;an adjustment mechanism including an actuator for adjusting an inlet cross section of the adjustable air inlet, anda flow guide separator for separating and diverting a boundary layer flow away from the adjustable air inlet regardless of a size of the inlet cross section, the flow guide separator including a wedge shaped portion with a rounded nose directed into the boundary layer flow;a first element and a second element which are configured to be moveable with respect to one another, so that the first element and the second element form the inlet cross section in a first position, and the first element and the second element close or substantially close the inlet cross section in a second position;wherein the first element is moveable;wherein the second element is fixed and positioned adjacent the flow guide separator;wherein both the first element and the second element are positioned directly radially outwardly from the flow guide separator in a direction away from the wall into the flowing air and transverse to a direction of the flowing air such that all of the first element, the second element and the flow guide separator intersect a same radial plane that is normal to a main axis of the aircraft engine. 2. The device according to claim 1, wherein the flow guide separator is arranged at a transition area of the adjustable air inlet to the wall. 3. The device according to claim 1, and further comprising a bent section which protrudes into the flowing air, wherein the inlet cross section is arranged at an end of the bent section that faces towards the flowing air. 4. The device according to claim 1, wherein in the second position the inlet cross section is closed or oriented such that no bleed air or substantially no bleed air enters through the adjustable air inlet. 5. The device according to claim 1, wherein the first element has a groove-shaped cross section, wherein the second element is arranged in the groove-shaped cross section with a rigid plate or rigid shell, so that the inlet cross section is formed between the first element and the second element. 6. The device according to claim 1, wherein the actuator includes at least one chosen from an electric actuator, a hydraulic actuator and a pneumatic actuator. 7. The device according to claim 1, wherein the nose is arranged away from an immediate area of the inlet cross section, and there is a distance of the nose to an edge of the inlet cross section of at least 10% of a maximum perimeter of the inlet cross section. 8. An aircraft engine including the device according to claim 1. 9. The device according to claim 1, wherein the nose is arranged away from an immediate area of the inlet cross section, and there is a distance of the nose to an edge of the inlet cross section of at least 25% of a maximum perimeter of the inlet cross-section.
