The Airbus Group division was sole in the
running in talks with Korea Aerospace Industries (KAI), the main
South Korean procurement consortium, after other contenders Bell
Helicopter, a unit of Textron and AgustaWestland of the
Finmeccanica group were ditched, French media had said.
"The signing will take place on Monday at 1100 am in Seoul", one
of the sources said.
Airbus Helicopters declined to comment.
