REUTERS/Karen Ducey/File PhotoWASHINGTON/SEATTLE: The Federal Aviation Administration on Wednesday said it was proposing to fine Boeing Co US$1.25 million after the agency alleged Boeing managers exerted undue pressure or interfered with work of employees performing duties for the government at the company’s plant in South Carolina.
