The FAA was exploring whether to propose software changes that would change the way the LEAP-1B responded to a bird strike.

The FAA Corrective Action Review Board, after reviewing the CFM LEAP-1B engine bird strikes, which eventually led to smoke entering the aircrafts, said that the issue does not warrant an immediate action. The agency will therefore follow standard regulatory processes to address them, Reuters reported.

The Federal Aviation Administration said on Tuesday it will not require any immediate action after convening a review board to consider concerns about Boeing 737 MAX engines after two bird strike incidents on Southwest Airlines planes in 2023.

A technical review by the FAA decided the risk from an engine vulnerability does not warrant immediate action, contrary to an internal report last month.
