Federal regulators have cited aircraft maker Textron Aviation for a December 2019 explosion that injured 15 workers at a Wichita manufacturing plant.

The agency has proposed a $13,494 penalty for the violation. The aviation manufacturer must also develop and implement measures to "effectively control, discover, maintain and repair pressure vessels.
