I'm going to make some assumptions :)  Feel free to argue.

Yes.

Add both together.

It's a class skill for sailors.

I'm not sure here.  For example, I don't see why a person couldn't take
over for a dead pilot while in the air and maybe even land it at -4 to
ability roll or something.  Taking off I'd say NO.  So perhaps they're a
circumstance thing.  Or for those you're not sure of, just give them
-4.  For prayer... is it even of ANY use at all for non Chaplains?

Until I hear otherwise I shall assume First Aid and Heal are the same
thing.

I think it must still be a class skill, but a foolish one to take when
combat medicine is simply an improved version.  For simplicity's sake I
might put an X on it on my skill list for Medics though.

Makes some sense.  So yes.

I think a Pilot should have this as a class skill too.  Maybe even a
Medic.

Might be a moot point if its useless to all but Chaplain.

Unless anyone knows it's part of the training for any of those classes,
I guess no.  Profiteers and spies would have it.

Apparently.
