DELTA CONTRACT APPROVED: Delta Air Lines Inc. pilots voted to approve a new four-year contract, heading off the threat of a strike. The Air Line Pilots Association, which represents about 10,000 Delta pilots, said the contract passed 5,862-2,476. The agreement will boost pay by between 24 percent and 39 percent during its term, depending on seniority and the type of aircraft a pilot flies. Separately, a spokesman for the union representing Comair pilots said the vote on a new contract was too close to call.
