That's not how criminal law works. Penal jurisdiction is determined by the geographic location of the alleged offense, not by the citizenship of the alleged victims.
In case of the files which were sent, Boeing may have decided to cooperate with the French authorities for other reasons.
Think about what would happen if the verdict of this French court would be internationally accepted. Now all of a sudden Thailand could ask the U.S. for my extradition if I were to accidentally say that their king has a small penis.
It simply doesn't work like that.
