　　Larry Page, Sergey Brin, and Eric Schmidt have eight jets between the three of them, reports Mercury News.
　　根据美国《水星新闻报》的报道，拉里·佩奇，谢尔盖·布林和埃里克·施密特这三位谷歌的高管加起来竟然拥有8架飞机！

　　They want to pay $33 million to help finish renovation of Moffett Federal Field, a joint civilian/military airport located between Mountain View and Sunnyvale.
　　他们打算斥资3300万美元（约合2.1亿元人民币）帮助翻新军民两用的莫菲特联邦机场，这座机场位于美国加州山景城和桑尼维尔市之间。

　　In exchange, they want to be able to use 2/3 of the floorspace to house their eight aircraft. The proposal has no official Google involvement —a company called H211 owns and operates the Google jets.
　　作为交换，谷歌希望可以使用该机场三分之二的停机坪来停放他们的八架私人飞机。这一交易谷歌并不直接参与，而是交由一家名为H211的公司来打理，该公司实际拥有并管理着谷歌的这八架飞机。

　　Officials at Moffett Field are skeptical. "We don't want to see 'Google' in 200-foot letters on that hangar," said Steve Williams of the Save Hangar One Committee. Ken Ambrose, director of operations for H211, said that the Google execs don't want that either.
　　莫菲特机场官方对此表示怀疑。莫菲特机场一号机库委员会的史蒂夫-威廉姆斯表示说，“我们不想看到在那片机库印上200英尺（约合61米）大的谷歌的名字。”H211公司的业务主管肯-安布罗斯也表示谷歌高层并不想这么做。
