Regardless of the religion in question this seems extremely inappropriate for a numbr of reasons:

- Airline pilots are looked up to as thoroughly professional - responsible for the lives of their psx. This was not professional behaviour for a pilot.

- The comments were highly offensive to non christian customers of the airline.

- At a time of much anxiety about flight safety the pilots intentions could easily have been misinterpreted.

- Further anxiety could well result from concern about the pilots state of mind and hence ability to fly an airplane.
