I believe that because he knew of the serious problems that could result in this product being released to the Air Force. When Mr. Lawson approached Mr. Vandivier with the issue in the very beginning‚ it was Mr. Vandivier’s choice to tell the Goodrich members of the error that he had made in creating the brakes. It was also Goodrich’s responsibility to not take part in shutting down the experiment when
