NASA grudgingly released some results Monday from an $11.3 million federal air safety study it previously withheld from the public over concerns it would upset travelers and hurt airline profits. The data reflects hundreds of cases where pilots flew too close to other planes, plunged from altitude or landed at airports without clearance. NASA published the findings -- contained in 16,208 pages -- but did not provide a roadmap to understand them, making it cumbersome for any thorough analysis by outsiders.
