German term or phrase: Aufladen
Hey there,

This is a rush job. Translating a native German speaker translation of a commcercial and technical invitation to tender from Spain done from Spanish.

I have no information whatsoever about the translator's technical subject matter expertise or research skills
but do think he or she is a pro translator and I know that they have Spanish to German as a main language pair.

Lösungen, die eine schnelle Änderung der Kabinenkonfiguration und vollständig autonomes ***Aufladen*** ermöglichen

How would you translate Aufladen or what you as a technical translator with knowledge in aviation or otherwise, research expert, understand it should really say there, into English?

Draft translation:
Solutions that enable a rapid change of cabin configuration and fully autonomous ***loading***.

I was thinking that the underlying Spanish might be cargar and I think this might mean loading in the context of the "cabin configuation".

I am open to any input, even charging.

Cheers,

Sebastian Witte

I am not clueless or anything. Stressing the issue here: there were accuracy problems with the translation we translated which inaccuracies transpired not to be minor in all cases. Considering Phil's and Gerd's and the latter, this here version might or might not be correct. Thanks.

Reference: "Quick Change" Optionen bei Boeing-Flugzeugen

Reference information:
Beigefügte Referenz soll einfach nur den Blick schärfen für die verschiedenen Belademöglichkeiten, wenn die Kabine mit Rollen ausgestattet wird.

Je nach Bedarf dann als Passagierflugzeug, "Fracht & Passage" oder wie im angefragten Fall "Stromfressende Sonderausstattung".
