Indonesian search and rescue teams looking for themissing AirAsia flight QZ8501 have pulled wreckageand several bodies from the sea off the Borneocoast.

尋找失聯(lián)的亞航(AirAsia) QZ8501航班的印尼搜救隊已在婆羅洲(Borneo)附近海域打撈到飛機殘骸和幾具遺體。

 

 

Earlier on Tuesday officials had said the Indonesian military had spotted several objects floatingin the sea near the last point of contact with the AirAsia aircraft.AirAsia confirmed the debriswas from QZ8501 and said it was found in the Karimata Strait, about 110 nautical miles southwest from Pangkalan Bun.

周二早些時候，印尼官員表示印尼軍方在亞航航班最后失聯(lián)地點附近海域發(fā)現(xiàn)了一些漂浮物。亞航證實這些殘骸來自QZ8501，并稱發(fā)現(xiàn)地點位于卡里馬塔海峽(Karimata Strait)，在印尼龐卡蘭布翁(Pangkalan Bun)西南方向約110海里處。

Six bodies had also been found in the sea by search and rescue teams lowered fromhelicopters and warships, with three — two women and a man — retrieved by Tuesday night, anavy spokesman said. Strong winds and high waves led to the suspension of the air rescueoperation, but naval warships continued to work through the night. A team of divers was beingsent to aid in the search.

一位海軍發(fā)言人稱，搜救隊從直升機和戰(zhàn)艦降落到海面，已經(jīng)找到了6具遺體，到周二晚上已經(jīng)撈起了其中3具，是兩名女性和一名男性。強風和巨浪使空中救援行動暫時中斷，但海軍戰(zhàn)艦繼續(xù)連夜搜索。已經(jīng)派出一組潛水員支援搜索行動。

The aircraft, an Airbus A320-200, was carrying 155 passengers, two pilots, four cabin crewand an engineer.

失聯(lián)航班是一架空客(Airbus) A320-200飛機，機上載有155名乘客，兩名飛行員，4名乘務人員和1名技術人員。

AirAsia said employees had been sent to the site and would co-operate with the Indonesiannational search and rescue agency, National Transportation Safety Committee and relevantauthorities

亞航表示，已經(jīng)派出人員前往現(xiàn)場，與印尼國家搜救機構——國家交通安全委員會(National TransportationSafety Committee)以及相關部門進行合作。

Flight QZ8501, operated by the Indonesian offshoot of the Malaysian low-cost carrier, vanishedfrom radar screens early on Sunday in stormy weather less than halfway into a two-hourjourney from Surabaya to Singapore.

QZ8501航班由這家馬來西亞廉價航空公司旗下的印尼分公司運營。航班計劃由泗水(Surabaya)飛往新加坡，在2小時飛行時間尚未過去一半時，該航班就在暴風雨天氣中消失在雷達屏幕上。

“It’s unlikely to be engineering-related,” said Neil Hansford, chairman of Strategic AviationSolutions, an aviation consultancy based in Australia. “It’s how the human factors are appliedwhen the weather-induced event happened — how was that handled and what are the results?”

“不大可能是技術相關的原因，”澳大利亞航空咨詢公司Strategic Aviation Solutions的董事長尼爾•漢斯福德(Neil Hansford)說，“這是天氣引發(fā)的事件中人為因素的作用——是怎么處理的，結果是什么?”

Earlier this year, AirAsia began rolling out satellite communications systems on its Airbus A320sthat would make aircraft easier to track by emitting signals every few minutes. However, theupgrade had not been applied to flight QZ8501.

今年早些時候，亞航開始在空客A320機型上安裝衛(wèi)星通訊系統(tǒng)，該系統(tǒng)每隔幾分鐘就會發(fā)出信號，使飛機的位置更容易追蹤。然而，QZ8501還沒有輪到這項升級。

The jet’s engines, made by CFM International, a joint venture between General Electric andFrance’s Safran, did not have a tracking system that relays real-time engine diagnostics andlocation back to the manufacturer. Such tracking systems are more typical on long-haul flights.

QZ8501的發(fā)動機由通用電氣(General Electric)和法國賽峰(Safran)的合資公司CFM International制造，并未配備向制造商傳送發(fā)動機實時診斷數(shù)據(jù)和位置信息的追蹤系統(tǒng)。這種追蹤系統(tǒng)在長途航班上比較多見。
