An American Airlines pilot made some passengers fearful when he urged them to make wise use of their flight time by talking to Christians, passengers said Monday.
...
"We were just at the beginning of our flight. The pilot came on to greet everyone and give his comments for the morning, and he said he'd recently been on a mission trip, and he'd like all the Christians to please raise their hands," said passenger Jen Dorsey.
He said, 'If you are a Christian, raise your hand.' He said, 'If you are not, you're crazy,'" said Austin.
...
"American Airlines apologizes if anyone was made to feel uncomfortable by the comments of this pilot," Wagner said.
The airline spokesman declined to say whether the pilot has been relieved of duty while an investigation is under way. The man, a senior pilot with the airline, did not fly again over the weekend, Wagner said.
The spokesman also declined to say whether the pilot is scheduled to fly this week.
The result of the airline's investigation will not be made public because it is an internal matter, Wagner said, adding it will be "handled internally according to American Airlines procedure."
