## Discrepancy

(CAN) DURING CRUISE, THE ENGINE EXHIBITED A LOUD NOISE ACCOMPANIED BY A LOSS OF POWER.  THE AIRCRAFT DIVERTED AND A DEAD-STICK LANDING WAS ACCOMPLISHED.   INITIAL INVESTIGATION REVEALED A FRACTURED REDUCTION GEARBOX HOUSING AND POWER TURBINE BLADES WITH LOSS OF CONTINUITY BETWEEN PROPELLER AND POWER TURBINE.  MFG WILL INVESTIGATE THE INCIDENT AND WILL ADVISE OF ROOT CAUSE, ONCE DETERMNED.
