May 19 - RTX RTX.N and the union representing around 3,000 striking U.S. Pratt & Whitney workers are resuming talks on Thursday as a stoppage goes into its third week, spokespeople for both the company and union said on Monday.
Pratt produces about 70% of the company's geared turbofan engines (GTF) in Connecticut, where the strike is affecting two sites. The GTF is used in European planemaker Airbus's AIR.PA strong-selling A320 neo family, along with engines for the F-35 fighter jet.
The International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers $(IAM.AU)$ said the workers are on strike for improved job security and higher pay.
