Dear Mr. Goldin,

Please find enclosed copies of the correspondence I have had with NASA, commencing with my letter to you of March 29, 1995, and ending with my letter to Mr. Alan J. Kennedy of November 2, 1995.

You will see that I have had no constructive response to my letter to you of March 29 and no response at all to my letter to you of September 20, 1995. It is apparent that Mr. Kennedy is unable to cope with the important aspects of proprietary and intellectual property rights.

I find it very strange that the U.S. government is prepared to threaten China with a trade war over proprietary and intellectual property rights for some American companies, but that NASA refuses to acknowledge these important Burnelli rights with regard to the McDonnell Douglas megajet project which has been funded by NASA. May I please have an explanation as well as a response to my letter to you, dated September 20, 1995.

Thank you and best regards.

        Yours sincerely,

        [signed]

        CHALMERS H. GOODLIN
        Chairman & President
