(planning) with leeway Explanation: Пример из книги: "....This makes it necessary to have a very flexible form of planning with leeway for departures from the plan." Еще пример из интернета: "While some travelers may take the easy path of “winging it”, which sometimes works out for the better, I tend to (at least) start off with a more balanced approach of "planning with leeway" to maximize my trip in terms of the experience, efficiency, and cost." -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 54 mins (2018-05-02 17:10:39 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Здесь "leeway" в значении "запас", "припуск", "допустимая свобода действий", "избыток" (см. Multitran) |
