TL;DR Summary

Boeing has abandoned plans to develop a 777-300ER freighter conversion due to cost concerns, according to the CEO of Boeing Global Services. The company had previously announced plans to develop the conversion program in 2018. Instead, Boeing's Product Development team is studying a 787 freighter program, including a passenger-to-freighter conversion of the 787-8 and a new-build freighter program for the 787-9. The 787 freighter would be the successor to the 767 freighter, which will be prohibited from production due to new emissions standards from 2028.
