On this week’s AvTalk, we break down all the news from the 2023 Paris Air Show, from IndiGo’s record breaking order to the new propulsion technologies just over the horizon. The 2023 Paris Air Show IndiGo kicked off the show with a record-breaking order for 500 Airbus A320neo-family aircraft. At 500 planes, it is the largest single order in commercial aircraft history. But just behind IndiGo comes Air India firming its commitments for Airbus and Boeing aircraft totally 470 across a variety of types. Boeing also now has a European 737-7 MAX launch customer as Luxair will add four of the type to their fleet.
