## Narrative

As the FAA filed it, in capitals; the FAA replaces private details with ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^.

ON 8/18/10 WHILE ON FINAL APPROACH INTO DEN FROM OKC THE CREW OF ACFT N840HK, FLIGHT 8041, HAD A 'BAGGAGE SMOKE WARNING'. THE PILOT DISCHARGED THE FIRE EXTINGUISHERS. AFTER LANDING, THE AIRCRAFT WAS EXAMINED BY DEN FIRE FIGHTERS AND NO EVIDENCE OF FIRE WAS FOUND. THE ACFT THEN TAXIED TO THE TERMINAL AND DE-PLANED.  THERE WERE NO INJURIES AND NO ANIMALS WERE IN THE CARGO COMPARTMENT.  MAINTENANCE FOUND NO EVIDENCE OF FIRE EITHER AND DEFERRED THE BAGGAGE COMPARTMENT SMOKE DETECTION SYSTEM PER MEL 26-15-00-1 CAT C DMI #57545 AND THE BAGGAGE COMPARTMENT FIRE EXTINGUISHER SYSTEM PER MEL 26-23-00 CAT C DMI #57848. THE CREW STATED THAT THEY DID NOT HAVE SUFFICIENT TIME TO DECLARE AN EMERGENCY AS THE CARGO SMOKE INDICATION AND SUBSEQUENT DISCHARGING OF THE FIRE EXTINGUISHERS HAPPENED "ON LANDING".  THE PILOTS HAVE FILED AN ASAP REPORT, ASAP EVENT ID #2677.

From the FAA Accident/Incident Data System. Reports are matched to registry aircraft by N-number and event date, checked against the reported make and model; the registry's history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model. For accidents, the NTSB's own investigation is the fuller record.
