By Robert J. Ambrogi

On May 31, Air France flight 447, out of Rio de Janeiro bound for Paris, seemed to vanish into thin air. A frantic search for passengers and the black boxes turned up some of the bodies and scattered parts, but no black boxes.<br /><br />This week on the legal-affairs podcast <a href="http://legaltalknetwork.com/podcasts/lawyer-2-lawyer/2009/06/air-france-crash-legal-issues/">Lawyer2Lawyer</a>, we examine the lega proceedings likely to result from this crash, including what law governs, in what jurisdiction cases may be brought, and what damages survivors are likely to recover.<br /><br />Helping us understand these issues are two lawyers who are specialists in aviation-related litigation:<br /><ul><li><a title="Attorney Justin T.
