Authorities reported that when an Amazon cargo aircraft veered off the runway at Miami International Airport, it resulted in the tragic deaths of five individuals, all of whom were inside a van designated for transporting cabin cleaning personnel at the time.

當局指出亞馬遜一架貨機邁阿密國際機場滑出跑道釀成五人罹難的悲劇這五名遇難者當時身處一輛負責接送機艙清潔人員的廂型車內。

While executing its landing procedure on Sunday, the jet veered off the runway, struck a van within the airport grounds, then crashed through a perimeter fence before slamming violently into a sports utility vehicle on a city street.

這架噴射機於週日執行降落程序時偏離跑道撞擊機場內一輛廂型車繼而衝破圍籬最終猛撞上城市街道中一輛運動型多用途車

Five additional individuals sustained injuries.

另有五人受傷

Miami-Dade County Sheriff Rosie Cordero-Stutz stated on Tuesday that the captain and first officer had been cleared for discharge from the hospital, yet two of the injured remained in critical condition, while a third was listed as stable.

邁阿密戴德縣警長羅西·科德羅-斯圖茨於週二表示機長副機長已獲准出院仍有兩名傷者情況危急第三人狀況穩定

The crushed white van, with its front end completely destroyed, and the severely damaged sports utility vehicle, now almost unrecognizable, remained at the crash site on Tuesday, parked alongside the jet, which lay nose-down with extensive soot stains near the 'Prime Air' markings on its fuselage.

被壓扁的白色廂型車車頭全毀嚴重受損幾乎面目全非運動型多用途車週二仍停放在墜機現場,與那架機頭朝下機身「Prime Air」字樣附近有大片煤灰污漬的噴射機並排停放

The National Transportation Safety Board is investigating the crash, with a particular focus on the absence of a system at the end of the airport runway that could decelerate and halt an over-speeding jet.

美國國家運輸安全委員會正調查這起墜機事件其中一項重點機場跑道末端缺乏能讓超速噴射機減速停止的系統

Miami airport is not among the 120 airports in the United States equipped with lightweight crushable materials,

邁阿密機場並非美國120座配備輕質可壓碎材料之機場的其中一員

and the Federal Aviation Administration claims that such materials have saved approximately 500 lives.

美國聯邦航空管理局宣稱此類材料挽救了500條人命

Experts point out that even though Miami Airport lacks a runway overrun protection system, its runway ends are still equipped with a 1,000-foot (305-meter) safety buffer zone, thus seemingly complying with federal regulations.

專家指出即便邁阿密機場缺乏跑道逸出防護系統其跑道末端仍設有1000英尺(305公尺)安全緩衝區因此似乎符合聯邦規範

Jennifer Homendy, chair of the National Transportation Safety Board, stated that the agency's purpose is to prevent tragedies, yet runway overruns continue to occur even though the board had previously recommended the installation of these systems.

國家運輸安全委員會主席珍妮弗·霍門迪表示該機構旨在防止悲劇即便委員會先前已建議安裝這些系統跑道逸出事件持續發生

She stated unequivocally at Monday's press conference: "Our recommendations must be implemented, or we are bound to encounter such predicaments once again."

在週一的新聞發布會上明確表示:「我們的建議必須付諸實行否則我們勢必將再度面臨此類困境。」

Investigators have recovered the flight data recorder and are currently in the process of scrutinizing the pertinent data.

調查人員已尋獲飛行資料紀錄器現正著手檢視相關數據

Hormendi stated that interviews with the captain, the first officer, and air traffic control personnel are presently in the planning phase.

霍門迪表示與機長副機長及航管人員的訪談事宜目前正處於籌劃階段

In its statement, Amazon indicated that it is fully cooperating with the relevant investigations and extending its most sincere condolences and sympathies to the victims and their families.

亞馬遜於聲明中指出正全力配合相關調查罹難者及其家屬致以最誠摯的哀悼慰問

All five victims were travelling in a van owned by Professional Ocean Service Corp., an aircraft cleaning company.

這五名罹難者乘坐於一架飛機清潔公司Professional Ocean Service Corp.所擁有的廂型車內。

The company stated that, out of respect for the bereaved families, it would refrain from making any comments regarding the crash.

該公司表示為尊重痛失親人的家屬將不會墜機事件發表任何評論

In a statement released on Tuesday, the company said, "To us, our employees mean far more than just colleagues working side by side each day; they are cherished family members.

公司在週二的聲明中表示:「對我們而言員工的意義遠不止於每日並肩工作的夥伴他們是備受珍視的家人

We extend our heartfelt concern to every employee and stand with all the families whose lives have been irrevocably altered by this tragedy, holding them in our thoughts and prayers."

我們由衷關懷每一位員工與所有因這場變故人生徹底改寫的家庭同在,心懷祈禱與祝福。」

The Miami-Dade County Sheriff's Office has identified the five deceased individuals as follows: fifty-five-year-old Rolando Alemán León, fifty-three-year-old Joel Rodríguez Naranjo, seventy-five-year-old Julio C. Pineda, fifty-three-year-old Carlos Acosta Fajardo, and forty-seven-year-old Javierquis Reyes Quevedo.

邁阿密戴德郡警長辦公室已確認五名罹難者的身分,分別為:五十五歲的羅蘭多·阿萊曼·萊昂、五十三歲的約爾·羅德里格斯·納蘭霍、七十五歲的胡里奧·C·皮內達、五十三歲的卡洛斯·阿科斯塔·法哈多,以及四十七歲的哈維爾基斯·雷耶斯·克韋多。

The Amazon cargo plane took off from Puerto Rico and landed after a two-hour flight, at which time a storm was brewing around Miami International Airport.

亞馬遜貨機自波多黎各起飛,歷經兩小時的航程後降落,彼時邁阿密機場周邊正醞釀著一場暴風雨。

The National Transportation Safety Board indicated that the aircraft veered off the runway approximately 1,300 feet (equivalent to 396 meters) beyond its far end.

國家運輸安全委員會指出,該架飛機於跑道末端外側約莫一千三百英尺(相當於三百九十六公尺)處衝出範圍。

Homendy described the scene as "devastating," with debris from vehicles, airbags, damaged navigation equipment, and fragments of fencing scattered everywhere.

霍門迪形容現場滿目瘡痍」,四處散落著車輛殘骸安全氣囊受損的導航設備圍籬碎片

She noted that, 24 hours after the incident, aviation fuel still remained at the site, necessitating extreme caution during the cleanup operations.

指出事發24小時後現場仍殘留航空燃油因此處理時須格外謹慎

On Sunday afternoon, winds exceeding 25 knots were reported.

週日下午據報有超過25節的強風

Experts who reviewed the landing footage indicated that a powerful tailwind appeared to have carried the aircraft beyond its intended touchdown point on the runway.

觀看降落影片的專家表示似乎有強勁的順風將飛機推離跑道,超出預定降落點。

The aircraft remained airborne without the nose being raisedthat is, without executing a flare maneuver.

飛機在未將機頭拉起(即未進行拉平操作)的情況下仍維持在空中

It remains unclear why the pilot did not abort the landing procedure and execute a go-around.

目前尚不清楚何以機師未中止降落程序執行重飛

Air traffic controllers likewise failed to adjust the approach heading, which would have enabled the aircraft to land into the wind; as a general rule, airports modify the landing direction in response to shifts in wind patterns.

航管人員亦未調整進場航向使飛機得以逆風降落一般而言機場在風向轉變時會相應調整飛機的降落方向

The flight was operated by 21 Air, a cargo airline headquartered in North Carolina.

該航班總部位於北卡羅來納州的21 Air貨運航空公司負責營運。

According to data from the flight tracking platform Flightradar24, this Boeing 767, which had been in service for 32 years, was originally designed for passenger transport and had served airlines in multiple countries for over two decades before being converted into a freighter in 2015.

航班追蹤平台Flightradar24的資料顯示這架已服役32年的波音767客機,最初設計用於載客,曾服務於多個國家的航空公司逾20年之久直至2015年才被改裝為貨機

Two of Miami Airport's four runways remained closed on Tuesday, with Hormendi noting that they would not reopen until investigators from the National Transportation Safety Board had gathered all necessary information from the crash site.

邁阿密機場四條跑道中的兩條於週二仍維持關閉狀態,霍門迪指出,在國家運輸安全委員會的調查人員自墜機現場蒐集完所有必要資訊之前,這兩條跑道不會重新開放。

Officials noted that over two hundred and twenty-five flights were cancelled in total on Sunday and Monday combined, with several hundred more experiencing delays.

官員指出,週日及週一兩日合計有逾兩百二十五班航班遭取消,另有數百班次出現延誤情況。

Hormendi noted that the National Transportation Safety Board would return the runway to the airport operators as soon as investigators had completed their on-site documentation.

霍門迪指出國家運輸安全委員會在調查人員完成現場紀錄後,儘速將跑道歸還予機場運營單位

Owing to an error in a press release issued by the Miami-Dade Sheriff's Office, an earlier version of this report misspelled the surname of the deceased, Joel Rodríguez Naranjo.

由於邁阿密戴德縣警長辦公室發布的新聞稿有誤本報導較早版本誤植了罹難者約爾·羅德里格斯·納蘭霍的姓氏
