Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (1): Yvonne Gallagher

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

chain exit with leakage-free exchangers (
'la fuite' is 'the flight', 'the escape' or 'the leakage'.
Mimita SWI (asker) Dec 6, 2021:
@Tony agree thank you
Bourth Dec 6, 2021:
Straight off I mean, guvna, straight orf, like, I might say 'straight off the production line', i.e. having never flown.
Emmanuella Dec 6, 2021:
I agree with Tony.

comes off the production line - French translation – Lingueehttps://www.linguee.com › english-french › comes+off...
C'est ainsi qu'un premier ordinateur est sorti de la chaîne de fabrication sans qu'aucun prototype n'ait été réalisé, si ce n'est virtuellement. unesdoc.unesco.
liz askew Dec 6, 2021:
I agree with Tony
Daryo Dec 6, 2021:
A "non-flying fleet of aircraft"?

Now, that's for sure a very innovative concept ...

as for "une flotte d’aéronefs sortie de chaîne", "la chaîne" would be most likely be the assembly line.

IOW "une flotte d’aéronefs sortie de chaîne" = a fleet of brand-new aircraft
Yvonne Gallagher Dec 6, 2021:
@ Lisa LOL

can you explain what "a fleet of aircraft carrying interchanges without flight" means???
Yvonne Gallagher Dec 6, 2021:
@ Tony yes, that's all
Lisa Rosengard Dec 6, 2021:
I understood:
'In the second phase of preliminary observation carried out on a fleet of aircraft carrying interchanges without flight, tests were carried out on aircraft which were out of the sequence.'
Tony M Dec 6, 2021:
@ Asker I'd have thought it simply meant 'a fleet of aircraft (coming) off the production line'

dleet of aircraft (coming) off the production line

I feel moved to add my original suggestion as an actual answer, as so many people have agreed with it, and we are getting other confusing suggestions coming in.

I have to partly disagree with some contributors: I'm not sure that 'sortie de' here necessarily implies any sense of immediacy; my feeling is that it is more about the fact that they are production models that have not undergone any special modifications; like the idea of 'de série' in FR; "standard models" in other words.

Apologies for the typo, please read 'fleet'
It is so cold in here, I can't feel my fingers, which makes my typing even worse than usual :-(
