"Soft orders" have led to a workforce reduction on Cessna's Citation Mustang production line. The company now expects to deliver roughly 70 of the entry-level jets this year, after a major order from a European air-taxi operator was cancelled. About 75 workers received notice last week. The Mustang is built at Cessna's Independence, Kansas, plant.
