(Reuters) -Boeing's and its largest union said on Friday that contract talks will resume on Oct. 7, as both sides seek an agreement to end a strike by around 33,000 of the planemaker's U.S. West Coast factory workers. Negotiators for the U.S. planemaker and the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers have struggled to find common ground, recently failing to clinch an agreement on key issues in the presence of federal mediators. "A resolution with the IAM stands as a priority for me, and our team is ready to resume mediated talks this Monday," Boeing CEO Kelly Ortberg told employees Friday.
