09:59 AM EST, 11/27/2024 (MT Newswires) -- (Updates with the FAA's response in the second and third paragraphs.)

The Federal Aviation Administration is not asking for any immediate action following a review of two 2023 incidents in which bird strikes on Southwest Airlines' ( LUV ) Boeing ( BA ) 737 Max passenger jet engines led to smoke entering the planes, media outlets reported Tuesday.

The FAA said the Corrective Action Review Board on Tuesday reviewed the incidents and assessed internal FAA safety recommendations. "Based on the available data, the CARB determined the issue does not warrant immediate action and the FAA will follow its standard rulemaking process to address it," an FAA spokesperson told MT Newswires in an email Wednesday.

The spokesperson added that the FAA will issue a new notice about "new information Boeing ( BA ) provided to operators of aircraft with LEAP-1B engines" as well as enhanced instructions.

Southwest Airlines ( LUV ) and Boeing ( BA ) did not respond to MT Newswires' requests for comment.
