Jetliners' wingtips touched the ground during two landings, one in Charlotte, North Carolina, on December 13, the other in Austin, Texas, on December 24. And in Jamaica, a plane overshot the runway during heavy rain on December 22.

FAA officials said in a statement Friday they will conduct a review of the mishaps to see if there might be a larger issue.

The statement says that, if needed, the FAA will work with American on corrective action.

A spokesman for American, a unit of Fort Worth, Texas-based AMR Corp, told the Fort Worth Star-Telegram on Friday that the company is cooperating with the FAA and conducting its own investigation.
