New York - The machinists at Boeing Co ended a 58-day strike that idled the aircraft maker's factories and cut into its earnings as they ratified a contract with increased wages and pension payments.

The four-year contract, longer than the traditional three-year agreements, was approved by 74 per cent of union voters Saturday, the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers said.

The first of the 27,000 machinists who had walked off the job are to return Sunday, but it was expected that it would take weeks or months to clear Boeing's backlog of orders.
