## Discrepancy

(CAN) ON APPROACH, THE PILOT NOTICED SMOKE COMING OUT OF FRESH AIR VENTS AND MOMENTS LATER LT WING OVERHEAT LIGHT CAME ON. ACFT LANDED WITHOUT INCIDENT. MX WENT TO LOOK AND FOUND THAT THE LT COOLING TURBINE HAD A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE. THE LT BLEED SYSTEM WAS MEL`D AND DISABLED. NUMEROUS RUNS WERE COMPLETED WITH NO FURTHER SMOKE COMING INTO CABIN.
