The Boeing Company has announced the results of recent flight tests conducted in collaboration with United Airlines, government agencies, suppliers, communications service providers, and academia. Using a United 737-8 jet as the 2025 ecoDemonstrator Explorer, Boeing evaluated an advanced digital communication system based on Internet Protocol Suite $(IPS)$ standards. The tests, carried out in late October over a two-week period with flights based in Houston and Edinburgh, assessed how internet-based communications can improve operational efficiency and flight safety, while also reducing air traffic congestion, fuel use, costs, and emissions. The results have already been presented by Boeing.
