NASA Study On Aviation Safety - Won't Release
This is kind of bizzare. NASA conducts one of the largest surveys of pilots on aviation safety incidents, collects 20,000 responses over 5 years, then refuses to release the results because
"Release of the requested data, which are sensitive and safety-related, could materially affect the public confidence in, and the commercial welfare of, the air carriers and general aviation companies whose pilots participated in the survey." http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/10/22/AR2007102201954.html http://thelede.blogs.nytimes.com/2007/10/23/air-safety-cover-up-worse-than-the-data/?hp

They spent taxpayers' money to conduct the survey. The results of the survey do not belong to NASA, but to the public.

IIRC, a FOIA request was made quite a while ago and NASA has not complied with the request for a variety of reasons.
