After two radar failures in less than two weeks grounded flights into and out of California, the Federal Aviation Administration has halted all tests and upgrades of its computer software at regional air traffic control centers around the country.

A radar failure Monday at the FAA's Oakland Center halted flights into the Bay Area's three major airports. A separate malfunction in Southern California last week forced airlines to cancel or delay hundreds of flights.
