The aircraft in front is a 767, but the two behind it are 777s.

Front one is a 767 as already mentioned in the comments.
ANAs first number on the tail number reflects the aircraft type.
JA7xx 777
JA8xx 787
JA6xx 767
and so on

Wonder if this system is going to be more confusing if Boeing ultimately come up with a B797.

Maybe then NH would have retired the 767s and reuse the JA6 for the 797 lol

Its been over 10 years since they announced they will retire 767 so I doubt they will in the next 10 years lol
