I missed it. Where in your post does it mention the airline industry?

NASA withheld the publicly funded study on the grounds that it would
possibly negatively impact the airline industry.

Why would the airline industry care?

You'll have to refer that question to NASA.

If anything it would give them
ammo for their new tax and "reduce GA" proposals. No one could
honestly believe that a measuable number of people would stop flying
as a result of this information.

Apparently some at NASA hold that opinion.
