MADRID (Reuters) - Spanish pilots union Sepla is suing Irish airline Ryanair in Spain's High Court over its pilot contracts, the union said in a statement on Friday.

Ryanair decided in December to recognise unions for the first time and, while it has come to agreements in Britain and Italy, it is still working towards deals with unions in other major centres such as Ireland and Spain.
