WASHINGTON, Nov 21 (Reuters) - The Federal Aviation
Administration plans to convene a corrective action review board
in the coming weeks to consider safety concerns about engines on
Boeing 737 MAX airplanes after two bird strike incidents on
Southwest Airlines ( LUV ) planes in 2023.
The FAA said it is addressing an issue with the CFM LEAP-1B
engine and is collaborating with Boeing ( BA ), CFM and the
European Union Aviation Safety Agency.
The Seattle Times, which reported the plan earlier, said the
FAA could issue instructions to pilots for changes during
procedures during takeoff until Boeing ( BA ) develops a permanent fix
that could extend delays to certification of the MAX 7 and MAX
10 models.
