## Discrepancy

TYS - A/C WAS DESENDING INTO TYS WHEN A BIRD STRUCK THE NR 1 ENGINE INLET.  THE CREW CHANGED A/C TO A/C 909 AND CONTINUED ON.  MAINTENANCE REMOVED AND REPLACED THE NR 1 ENGINE INLET AFTER BOROSCOPING THE ENGINE.  BOROSCOPE REVEAL NO DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE CORE.  INLET WAS CHANGED AND WILL BE RELEASED.
