## Discrepancy

(CAN) IN FLIGHT SMOKE WAS EVIDENCED IN THE CABIN AND THE ENGINE FIRE WARNING WAS ACTUATED,. FIRE BOTTLES WERE DISCHARGED AND THE ENGINE WAS SHIT DOWN. INITIAL INSPECTION REVEALLED A FRACTURED 6&7 BEARING VENT LINE AND INTERNAL TURBOMACHINERY DAMAGE. THE ENGINE WILL BE INVESTIGATED TO ESTABLISH CAUSE. (TC# 20090911008)
