## Discrepancy

(CAN) SHORTLY AFTER TAKEOFF, AT APPROXIMATELY 1000 FEET ALTITUDE A LIGHT SMOKE APPEARED IN THE CABIN ACCOMPANIED WITH A BURNING SMELL. THE AIRCRAFT IMMEDIATELY RETURNED TO THE DEPARTURE AIRPORT. FURTHER INVESTIGATION BY MAINTENANCE REVEALED THAT THE FLAP MOTOR WAS BURNED OUT AND WAS THE CAUSE OF THE SMOKE AND BURNING SMELL. THE FLAP MOTOR AND GEARBOX WERE REPLACED AND THE AIRCRAFT RETURNED TO SERVICE. (TC NR 20060906024)
