Todd: Alexandra, you worked at an airport before. You said you worked in Aviation.

Alexandra, 你之前在机场工作。你说你是做航空业的。

Alexandra: Yes, my previous job was write contracts for an aviation company and we bought and sold airplanes and aircraft engines, so we did a lot of marketing and leasing and speaking to people from different countries, and airlines wanting to buy equipment, so a lot of negotiations.

是的,我之前的工作是在一家航空公司签合同,我们公司买卖飞机以及飞机引擎。所以我们公司做营销,租赁还与来自不同国家的人进行交谈,而且航空公司想要买设备,所以还会有很多谈判。

Todd: Can you explain what leasing is?

你能解释一下什么是租赁吗?

Alexandra: Leasing is when our company owns a piece of equipment, either an airplane or an engine and a customer has a need, for example, if their airplane has to do some maintenance, and they need a replacement, then we will let them use our airplane for a certain amount of months, like you rent a car, same thing, same idea.

租赁就是我们公司会有很多设备,当顾客需要一架飞机,或者一个引擎的时候,如果他们的飞机需要维护,或者说是需要更换,我们将会让他们先用我们飞机几个月,跟你租辆车是一样的,相同的事情相同的道理。

Todd: Oh, wow. And you lease not only the plane but engines as well?

哦,哇。那你的租赁中不仅是租飞机还租引擎?

Alexandra: Sometimes you have an airplane that's delayed at the airport because of some reason and they need to swap an engine out, or whatever.

有时候如果你的航班在机场因为某些原因晚点了,他们就需要交换引擎或者是其他的一些事情。

Todd: Right before the plane takes off, they sometimes switch engines?

就在飞机起飞的时候,他们总是会换引擎?

Alexandra: They'll take the passengers off and put them on another plane cause it takes a lot longer than the 10 or 15 minute turnaround, but, you will have, it's more an emergency type of situation, so they'll take the engine off, and it might be and overnight deal so we go ahead and furnish a replacement engine until they can move that plane back to where it belongs or have the engine repaired.

他们会让乘客先下飞机然后去搭乘另一班。换引擎的时候会多于10或15分钟,但更多时候还会突发紧急状况,所以他们会关掉引擎。之后就可能会有一场连夜交易,我们要去给他们配备一个替代品直到他们能将飞机归回原位或者是修好引擎。

Todd: So can you lease a pilot?

那你能租用飞行员吗?

Alexandra: You can, yes, you can lease a crew. Yes! It's called a wet lease, and we used to do dry leases meaning we only provided the equipment but a wet lease includes a full crew that will fly the airplane, flight attendants, etc.

可以,是的,你可以租借机组成员。那叫是租赁。我们过去常常做干租赁,那意味着我们只提供设备而湿租赁包括完整的机组以及飞机乘务员等等。
