EgyptAir takes delivery of third Boeing 737-800
EgyptAir took delivery of its third Next-Generation B737-800 from Boeing on 07 September 2007. The airline originally ordered six B737-800s and six purchase options in August 2005. In October 2006 the carrier converted the six purchase options into firm orders.

EgyptAir is the first airline to begin regular service with a 737 delivered with Boeing's Class 3 Electronic Flight Bag (EFB) installed in the flight deck. The Boeing EFB digitally delivers vital charts and manuals that pilots need to fly an airplane, giving them quick access to the information they require. One available option is an onboard performance tool that gives pilots the ideal speeds and engine settings for an aircraft, in any weather, on any runway, with any payload, and can create vast gains in efficiency, range and payload.
