Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos says that this reality may be just four or five years away.亚马逊网站首席执行官杰夫·贝索斯称，这一远景有望在四、五年内成为现实。
In a interview with Charlie Rose on CBS’s “60 Minutes” Bezos showed off Amazon-branded drones that he says can travel 10 miles and carry packages weighing up to five pounds to doorsteps in less than 30 minutes.杰夫·贝索斯日前做客CBS电视台的《60分钟》新闻节目，在与主持人查理·罗斯的交谈中，杰夫展示了亚马逊研发的无人机。他称这台无人机可以在30分钟之内行驶10英里距离，将5磅重以下的包裹送货上门。
“These are octocopters,” Bezos said in the interview. “These are effectively drones, but there’s no reason these can’t be used as delivery vehicles.”“这是一种八翼无人机，”贝索斯在采访中说，“它们是非常有效率的无人机，没有什么理由它们不能用来送货。”
You won’t be seeing them anytime soon — the FAA has yet to release rules about how unmanned flying vehicles may be used — but Bezos said he thinks Amazon could start offering a “Prime Air” service within four or five years.这种无人机目前还不会被广泛应用，还有待联邦航空局对无人驾驶飞行器的行为规范做出相关规定。但是贝索斯称，四、五年内亚马逊就应该可以开始提供这种“Prime Air”服务。
“It will work, and it will happen,” Bezos said. The truth is that the FAA will ultimately decide that.贝索斯说，“这种运输方式不仅行之有效的，而且具备现实的条件。” 此言是否属实，最终还得须由联邦航空局来决定。
