Japan’s All Nippon Airways (ANA) will install Boeing’s Class 3 Electronic Flight Bag (EFB) in three new 777-300ERs to be delivered beginning this year. Financial terms were not disclosed. Boeing said the airline’s decision is significant because ANA is the first Japanese airline to use Boeing’s EFB on a commercial flight and because it represents the first Boeing EFB purchase by ANA, one of the world’s leading 777 operators. Boeing delivered ANA’s first 777-300ER with the Electronic Flight Bag in April. ANA has taken delivery of 39 777s and has eight more on order. Boeing’s EFB has recorded more than 1,000 total orders since it was introduced for sale in 2002. It has been ordered for Next-Generation 737s, 747s, 757s, 767s, 777s and 787s.
