marciovp :
so that Excel Air can be sued...
Follow the money is always a good trail in investigations . But this time the family relatives should perhaps realize that the State of Brazil has far more funds that a small US company ( that could also declare that part operating the aircraft insolvent ) and I am not sure the Legacy impounded was paid cash in advance . If banks were involved they will certainly recoup their credits on it as well.

In the US , during the Cerritos trial, the Mexican lawyers representing the families preferred to attack the FAA ( which had little responsibility in that case but a lot of cash ) instead of the Pilot/owner of the Piper, whose assets were less that a Million US. They won by the way , and the FAA paid.

Excelent translation!!!!
