NEW YORK (Reuters) - The world's largest pilots union rebuked the federal agency handling the investigation of Saturday's passenger jet crash in San Francisco, and said it had released too much information too quickly, which could lead to wrong conclusions and compromise safety.

Releasing data from the flight's black boxes without full investigative information for context "has fuelled rampant speculation" about the cause of the crash, the Air Line Pilots Association International said in a statement on Tuesday.
