United MileagePlus (Consolidated) - Strange Seat Map for UA 28 from EWR to LHR

Booked on UA 28 from EWR to LHR tomorrow. It is shown always to be a 777-200 and as such I selected my seat. Then it changed to show E+plus seating a few days ago from row 16 back to about row 22, so I selected a seat in E+plus. All this time UA.com is showing 3, 3, 3 across seating in coach. I checked in today and all of a sudden the seating map reverts to 2, 3, 2 across seating in coach and still shows it as a 777-200, but the seat map is for a 767-400ER. Suddenly my seat is also changed from XXC to XXB, but still an aisle seat.

In checking the status of the inbound aircraft it is showing UA 85 and a 777-200 with a real seat map for a 777. This looks like an aircraft change but it seems that SHARES cannot show that and still shows a 777-200 with a seat map for a 767-400ER. Or is United reconfiguring the aircraft when it arrived from TLV before it turns round for LHR? Another change I will like?

Probably a change to a 767. I've had this happen a few times recently with SHARES not recognizing the change.

What does UA Cargo think?

Alternatively, what fleet # is your plane according to the mobile website?
