Chief technician (Chf Tech or formerly C/T) is a senior non-commissioned rank in the Royal Air Force which is only held by airmen in technical trades and by musicians. It is between sergeant and flight sergeant and, like the latter has a NATO code of OR-7. Airmen in non-technical trades progress directly from sergeant to flight sergeant. Along with junior technician this is a survivor of a separate ranking system for technicians introduced in 1950 and abolished in 1964. During that period it was equivalent to flight sergeant, but was made junior to that rank in 1964. Chief technicians are usually addressed as "Chief". rdf:langString

The rank of Chief Technician falls into Supplement 3 Pay Scales, unless you are a Weapons Technician then you are Supp 2. This enhanced pay rewards those who wish to take on a technical trade. It is quite normal for a TG1 Supp 3 CT to be paid more than a TG17 Supp 1 Flight Sergeant. To mitigate the extra ranks, a Chief Technician receives a Flight Sergeants pension after 2 years in rank.
