Legal Question in International Law in Arizona

What are the rules to use to set the applicable law under an international contract when the CISG does not apply ? (sales of an aircraft by a foreign company to a US agent)

I looked for some rulings of the supreme court but does not fin them..

Thanks for your help

You must designate the (1) the law - if not CISG - then the law of some country, (2) the forum (e.g.. arbitration?, by whom, and where - what country?). Really too complicated for do-it your-self work and if you do wrong you are lost in space.
