  据航班的运营者苏格兰区一家区域性的航空公司洛根航空介绍,该航班连接的是英国两个偏远的小岛,距离只有2.7公里,耗时仅需两分钟;事实上,在“理想的风力条件下”,只要47秒钟就能飞到。

  As a tiny hop between two remote British islands, the 2.7-km flight officially takes two minutes and can be done in 47 seconds "under ideal wind conditions," according to its operator Scottish regional airline Loganair.
