Boeing 757-200 (N757ET) - The Boeing EcoDemonstrator spending a couple weeks at Shreveport Regional doing bug test on the leading edge of the right wing to see what the bugs do for drag. The plane will land and they will replace the leading edge with different materials to see what the best material is to reduce drag and improve fuel efficiency. Its is nice to watch the plane moving so much as such a slow airport. Plus it has a NASA decal. Even better! You can see the material on the right wing.
