Dear Mr. Goldin,

I enclose herewith copy of my letter of this date to the Boeing Company.

We respectfully request that NASA provide no further funding to the subject BWB project until Boeing-McDonnell Douglas makes appropriate formal arrangements with the Burnelli Company for the use of its rights in their lifting body design.

Thank you.
