Four Boeing 777 operated by Austrian Airlines will use a high‑tech foil that is expected to save up to 2,650 tonnes of fuel by 2028, with the investment recouped in about two years.
In early September, Discover Airlines received the Aeroshark foil for an Airbus A330‑300 from Lufthansa Technik and Surventis at Elbe Flugzeugwerke, and approval for the foil on the A330 is anticipated by the end of the year; Lufthansa Technik is also testing a successor foil for wing surfaces, while Delta Air Lines and Japan Airlines are using riblet technology from another supplier.
