WASHINGTON - Mechanics struck Northwest Airlines early Saturday after refusing big pay cuts and layoffs that would have cut their numbers almost in half. The nation's fourth largest airline pledged to keep flying with replacements. ------------ Northwest sought $1.1 billion worth of annual cuts from its employees. Last fall, pilots agreed to a 15 percent pay cut worth $300 million when combined with cuts for salaried employees. The pay cut sought for mechanics amounted to about 25 percent. news.yahoo.com
