Boeing's ecoDemonstrator continues, the company recently announcing a 777-200 as the next testbed trialling technologies in the ongoing programme to assess new ways of tackling aviation industry challenges including efficiency, safety and the flying experience. The 777-200 that will serve as the 2019 ecoDemonstrator will test around 50 projects in flights this autumn, with the testing campaign including a trip to Frankfurt, where the ecoDemonstrator's technology mission will be presented to government officials, industry representatives and STEM students. The specific 777-200 involved in the 2019 trials is believed to be a former Air China aircraft.
