"Ezek a repülőgépek felszállnak, azok pedig leszállnak."

Translation: These airplanes are taking off, and those are landing.

"These airplanes are taking off, and those ONES are landing." Is there a difference in the translation?

[vvsey]

No, it is the same in Hungarian.

[AnCatDubh]

Wait what’s szállnak in isolation?

[Raphi_K]

szállni is difficult to translate directly and it's meaning changes with the coverb.

leszállni - land (e.g. plane, bird, helicopter)

felszállni - take off (e.g. plane, bird, helicopter)

kiszállni - to disembark / get off (e.g. from a bus or train)

beszállni - to board / get on (e.g. from a bus or train)

That's correct, a minor thing to note: száll in isolation usually refers to gliding (without propelling): birds, gliders, paper airplanes, frisbies, etc. Also, things blown by the wind: dust, fog, smoke...

Eg. only the more general repül can be used for "flying in (one) place"

[Krisbaudi]

Is anything wrong with: These airplanes are departing.....?

[-BigWayne19-]

------- not a lot, but it does ignore the "fel- " and "le- " . . .
