## Discrepancy

THE FLIGHT CREW REPORTED THAT ON TAKEOFF, HAD A SMOKE SMELL IN THE CABIN AND COCKPIT WITH NO VISIBLE SMOKE.  THE SMELL CLEARED AFTER TWO MINUTES AND THE AIRCRAFT CONTINUED ITS FLIGHT WITHOUT INCIDENT.  MAINTENANCE IN GSO INSPECTED THE AIRCRAFT AND FOUND EVIDENCE OF A BIRD STRIKE THAT ENTERED THE CORE OF ENGINE 2.  A BOROSCOPE INSPECTION WAS PERFORMED WITH NO DEFECTS NOTED.  THE ENGINE 2 BLEED SYSTEM WAS DEFERRED DUE TO CONTINUING ODORS.  THE AIRCRAFT WAS THEN FLOWN TO CMH WHERE A COMPRESSOR WASH WAS PERFORMED AND NO FURTHER ODORS WERE NOTED.
