## Discrepancy

FLIGHT CREW RETURNED THE ACFT TO DEPARTURE JUST AFTER TAKEOFF DUE TO SMOKE IN THE COCKPIT AND A HAZE IN THE AFT CABIN.  MX FOUND BIRD REMAINS IN THE NR 1 ENG INLET.  BOROSCOPE OF NR 1 ENGINE REVEALED BIRD REMAINS BACK TO THE 7TH STAGE BUT NO DAMAGE. DUCT BURN OUT PROCEDURES, OPS 5089, WERE ACCOMPLISHED. THE ACFT HAS RETURNED TO SERVICE.
