## Discrepancy

(CAN) ON APPROACH WHEN POWER WAS BEING REDUCED, A LOUD BANG WAS HEARD AND A FLASH OF LIGHT WAS SEEN FROM THE NR 2 ENGINE.  ALL ENGINE INDICATIONS WERE READING "0".  ENGINE WAS SECURED AND THE AIRCRAFT LANDED. PO-FLIGHT INSPECTION FOUND THE ACCESSORY GEARBOX AND THE REDUCTION GEARBOX SEIZED.  DEBRIS OF UNKNOWN ORIGIN WAS FOUND IN THE POWER TURBINE AND THE EXHAUST AREA.
