Any widebody activity in IND?

Yes, there was in the late 70s and early 80s. American flew up to 2 DC-10s daily and TWA flew up to 4 L-1011s daily as well. There were also various charters..I remember in 1977 seeing an American 747 on a charter flight IND-HNL.

United rotated 767s in and out of ORD when they had their maintenance facility here.
