Forget the drive-thru, now you can eat your Big Mac and fries at an air-mazing McDonald's restaurant on this decommissioned aircraft.
忘掉汽車(chē)餐廳吧!現(xiàn)在你可以在這架退役飛機(jī)上的麥當(dāng)勞享用巨無(wú)霸和薯?xiàng)l啦!
For the last 24 years the disused DC-3 plane has been parked beside the McDonald's restaurant in Taupo, New Zealand.
過(guò)去24年,這架廢棄的DC-3飛機(jī)一直停在新西蘭陶波的一家麥當(dāng)勞旁邊。
The grounded passenger plane, with its refurbished red and silver interior and seating for 20, is very much a part of the restaurant and customers can enjoy their meal within the comfort of the cabin.
這架客機(jī)現(xiàn)在是麥當(dāng)勞的一部分。它的內(nèi)部被翻新刷了紅色和銀色,安置了20個(gè)座位,人們可以在機(jī)艙里享受他們的餐點(diǎn)。
Eileen Byrne, the restaurant's 59-year-old owner, says: 'The site was previously part of a car dealership, and the owner bought a disused DC-3 plane, which sat alongside the building.And when McDonald's purchased the site in 1990, the aeroplane came with it.’
這架麥當(dāng)勞的主人,59歲的艾琳?伯恩說(shuō),“這個(gè)地方曾經(jīng)是一家汽車(chē)經(jīng)銷(xiāo)行的,商行老板買(mǎi)下了退役的DC-3飛機(jī),就停在大樓旁。當(dāng)麥當(dāng)勞1990年買(mǎi)下這塊地時(shí),也就包括了這架飛機(jī)。”
The DC-3 plane has been painted in traditional McDonald's colours, with the company's iconic lettering on the exterior, too. Diners can access the plane via a flight of stairs near the tail, and the public must go through the restaurant in order to enter the aircraft.
這架DC-3被粉刷成了麥當(dāng)勞經(jīng)典的顏色,外面還標(biāo)上了麥當(dāng)勞的標(biāo)志性字母。就餐者可以從機(jī)尾的階梯上去,穿過(guò)餐廳到達(dá)飛機(jī)。
While the engines have been removed, the plane's propellers are still intact and the cockpit has been left in its original state, much to the delight of diners.
飛機(jī)引擎已經(jīng)被摘去,但螺旋槳還原封不動(dòng),而且駕駛員座艙也保持原樣,供食客參觀。
Eileen said: 'We have a locked clear perspex door, preventing access and to ensure that items, such as the knobs on the joystick, are not 'removed for collection' purposes.However, we are happy to open the cockpit for enthusiasts and to take photos for them.There is a storyboard which explains the plane's history and photographs of her years in service.The plan was, and still is, to keep the appearance of the plane as original as possible.'
艾琳說(shuō):“駕駛員座艙的透明玻璃門(mén)是上鎖的,這是為了防止有的人進(jìn)來(lái),把控制桿的把手拿回去‘收藏’。但是,我們?nèi)栽敢鉃轱w機(jī)愛(ài)好者打開(kāi)艙門(mén),并為他們拍照留念。同時(shí),機(jī)艙里還有一個(gè)故事板,介紹了飛機(jī)的歷史和她服役那些年的照片。這架飛機(jī)曾經(jīng)是什么樣,我們盡可能保證她現(xiàn)在還是什么樣?!?/div>
The plane, a Douglas DC-3 aircraft, was built in 1943 and was one of three used by New Zealand's South Pacific Airlines from 1961 to 1966.In 1971 it was renamed and used as a top-dressing plane, before being decommissioned in 1984.
這架道格拉斯DC-3飛行器于1943年建造,是1961~1963年新西蘭南太平洋航線最早投入使用的三架飛機(jī)之一;1971年,她被重新命名,并用作施肥機(jī);最終于1984年退役。
After retiring from the skies the plane was placed in storage, having flown 56,282 hours during its working life.
在經(jīng)歷了56282小時(shí)的飛行生涯后,這架退役飛機(jī)被妥善保管起來(lái)。
