SAN MATEO -- Local attorney Terry O'Reilly announced that a record $165 million settlement has been reached relating to the crash of Air Philippines Flight 541 in 2000.

O'Reilly, a veteran airline crash attorney with O'Reilly & Danko, said this week that the San Mateo law firm reached an agreement between AAR Parts Trading Inc. and Fleet, the lessors of the Boeing 737 aircraft.

It took seven years of litigation to reach the agreement, the largest settlement for an Asian airline accident, O'Reilly said
