Airbus is near a deal to sell 500 A320 narrow-body planes to IndiGo, Reuters reported. That would make it the largest order ever by volume, topping Air India's 470-plane deal in February. Boeing rival Airbus is near a deal to sell 500 planes from the A320 narrow-body family of jets to India's largest airline, IndiGo, Reuters reported on Sunday. Meanwhile, Airbus and Boeing are also in talks to sell 25 wide-body jets to IndiGo, the report added. That's in contrast with Air India's massive order, which was split between 220 Boeing planes and 250 Airbus planes.
