PDForra has called on the Government to honour the commitments made in the high-level implementation plan regarding a review of technicians pay, warning that the failure to do so could lead to aircraft being grounded.

Gerard Guinan, the association's general secretary, said his members were “deeply concerned” about the self-imposed limitations that were placed upon the review of technician pay grades 2-6.
