The International Association of Machinists members in Wichita approved Hawker Beechcraft's five year deal by 69 percent. Union District 70 president Steve Rooney called it a good agreement given current times, and CEO Bill Boisture expressed pleasure with the vote. The pact covers about 2,600 hourly workers, with no wage increases in the first two years and raises of 1, 2, and 3 percent in years three to five, while preserving the pension plan.
