WASHINGTON, Oct 14 (Reuters) - U.S. regulators proposed on

US Airways Group (LCC.N) and UAL Corp's United Airlines
(UAUA.O), which was cited for leaving towels inside a jet
engine for several months.
The FAA proposed to fine United $3.8 million for allegedly
violating airworthiness rules when it flew a Boeing 737 (BA.N)
on more than 200 flights. The agency alleged United violated
