| Experts say a Juneyao Airline captain whose pilot's license was revoked after he ignored orders to delay a landing may have wanted to save fuel and ensure an on-time arrival, China Economic Weekly reported. |
据《中国经济周刊》报道，据专家分析，“避让门”事件中被吊销飞行执照的吉祥航空机长拒绝执行空管命令、延迟降落，是为了节省燃油和确保正点。 |

民航业内人士透露，燃油效率和正点率均与飞行员的收入密切相关。放弃降落次序、重新排队将耗费更多燃油，也很可能造成晚点。 |

Radio: "Mayday, mayday, mayday! Hello, can you hear us? Can you hear us? Can you... over!" |
“紧急状况，紧急状况，紧急状况！你好，你能听到我们吗？你能听到我们吗？你能……完毕！” |
※ “Mayday”是国际通用的无线电通话遇难求救讯号，“Mayday”一字原为“救我”的法语“m'aider”，以英语发音变成了“Mayday”。
