## Discrepancy

LOUD BANG WAS HEARD AND FELT WHILE CLIMBING THROUGH FL 37 AN ODOR WAS MOMENTARILY ASSOCIATED WITH IT.  AN EMERGENCY WAS DECLARED AND THE AIRCRAFT DIVERTED TO LAS.  UPON LANDING THE FIRE PERSONNEL REPORTED LARGE QUANTITIES OF SMOKE EMANATING FROM THE ENGINE AREA.  O2 MASKS WERE DEPLOYED.  THIS IS STILL UNDER INVESTIGATION.
