印尼鹰航已将其机队中唯一的波音737 MAX飞机撤下，将这架飞机归还给其所有者。该架MAX 8在2019年3月因两起致命的MAX碰撞事故停飞后，过去三年也一直处于停运状态。
Garuda Indonesia returns MAX to owner
印度尼西亚鹰航将把这架737 MAX归还给所有者
Having spent the past three-and-a-half years in storage, Garuda Indonesia's only Boeing 737 MAX has officially left the airline's fleet. Garuda has returned the jet to its lessor as it makes a series of significant fleet adjustments.
在停飞三年半后，印尼鹰航唯一的一架波音737 MAX正式离开了该航空公司的机队。鹰航已经将这架飞机归还给了所有者，因为要对机队进行了一系列重大调整。
On July 19th, the Boeing 737 MAX 8 (registration: PK-GDA) departed its storage home at Soekarno-Hatta International Airport (CGK), Jakarta, en route to Woensdrecht Air Base near the city of Bergen op Zoom, Netherlands, stopping over at Al Ain International Airport on the way.
7月19日，波音737 MAX 8（注册号：PK-GDA）从位于雅加达苏加诺—哈达国际机场（CGK）的仓库出发，飞往荷兰卑尔根市附近的Woensdrecht空军基地，途中在艾因国际机场停留。
The jet had been parked in Jakarta since March 2019 in the aftermath of the two MAX crashes involving Lion Air and Ethiopian Airlines. Despite Indonesia giving the green light to Boeing 737 MAX operations in December 2021, Garuda Indonesia never returned its sole MAX to service.
2019年3月，狮子航空和埃塞俄比亚航空公司发生两起波音737 MAX坠机事件后，这架飞机一直停在雅加达。尽管印尼在2021年12月为波音737 MAX运营开了绿灯，但鹰航从未将唯一的737 MAX重新投入使用。
Garuda Indonesia has an order with Boeing for 50 737 MAXs but wants to cancel after taking delivery of just one MAX, with the debt-ridden carrier unable to fulfill the $4.9 billion deal.
印尼鹰航与波音公司有50架737 MAX的订单，但在收到一架MAX后却希望取消订单，因为这家负债累累的航空公司无法支付这笔49亿美元的订单。

The Boeing 737 MAX 8 is just under five years old and entered service with Garuda Indonesia in December 2017. The aircraft spent just 15 months in active service before MAX aircraft worldwide were grounded in early 2019.
波音737 MAX 8的机龄不足5年，于2017年12月在印尼鹰航服役。在MAX飞机于2019年初全球停飞之前，该飞机仅使用了15个月。
According to ch-aviation, the jet clocked in over 3,000 flight hours before being withdrawn. The MAX is configured with a two-class layout - eight in business class and 162 in economy.
根据CH航空公司的说法，这架飞机在归还之前一共飞行了3,000多个小时。737 MAX配置了两舱布局——商务舱8个座，经济舱162个座。
The aircraft is owned by Chinese leasing firm Bocomm Leasing, a fully-owned subsidiary of China's Bank of Communications. Bocomm Leasing was established in 2007 and has grown into one of the largest aviation lessors in China.
这架飞机归是中国的租赁公司宝康租赁所有，这一公司是中国的交通银行的全资子公司。该租赁公司于2007年建立，目前已成为中国最大的航空租赁公司之一。
The firm now boasts 170 aircraft in its portfolio with a further 200 on order, serving over 50 domestic and international clients.
该公司目前拥有170架飞机，另有200架订单，共服务于50多个国内和国际客户。
Rejigging the fleet
调整机队
With Garuda Indonesia's restructuring reaching a critical phase this year, the carrier has made some key decisions regarding its fleet. Garuda plans to operate between 60 and 70 aircraft by the end of 2022, amounting to a 30-40% reduction and considerably lower than earlier estimates of over 100 aircraft.
随着今年印尼鹰航的重组进入关键阶段，该航空公司已经就其机队做出了一些关键调整。鹰航计划到2022年底把60至70架飞机投入使用，相当于减少30-40%，大大低于之前估计的100多架飞机。
The airline will focus on serving short-haul and domestic routes while trimming back long-haul operations.
该公司将把业务重点放在短途和国内航线，同时削减长途业务。
Simple Flying explored the largely inactive Garuda Indonesia fleet in more detail last month, noting that only 38 of its 108 aircraft are active. The beleaguered Indonesian carrier will also return its Bombardier CRJ1000s to lessors Nordic Aviation Capital and Export Development Canada, beginning with two aircraft this month.
上个月，简单飞行公司更加详细地调查了使用率很低的印尼鹰航空机队，并指出其108架飞机中只有38架正在使用。这家陷入困境的公司还将把其庞巴迪CRJ1000型飞机归还给北欧航空资本和加拿大出口发展，本月还将归还两架飞机。
