## Discrepancy

ON APPROACH, THE ENGINE EMITTED A LOUD NOISE ACCOMPANIED BY AN UNCOMMANDED REDUCTION IN POWER.  THE ENGINE WAS SHUT DOWN IN FLIGHT.  SUBSEQUENT INSPECTION REVEALED METAL DEBRIS AT THE ENGINE CHIP DETECTORS AND FILTERS.  P&WC WILL INVESTIGATE THE INCIDENT AND WILL ADVISE OF ROOT CAUSE ONCE ESTABLISHED.
