## Discrepancy

EN ROUTE FROM JON TO HIK, DURING CRUISE THE NUMBER TWO ENGINE EXPERINCED A COMPRESSOR STALL FOLLOWED BY PARTIAL POWER REDUCION.  THE FLIGHT CREW SECURED THE ENGINE FOLLOWING COMPANY PROCEDURES.  THE FLIGHT CONTINUED TO HIK FOR AN UNEVENTFUL LANDING.  MAINTENANCE INSPECTED THE ENGINE WHICH REVEALED COMPRESSOR DAMAGE.  THE ENGINE IS SCHEDULED TO BE REPLACED PRIOR TO THE AIRCRAFT RETURNING TO SERVICE.  DURING SHOP TEARDOWN REVEALED BROKEN BLADES ON THE TWELFTH STAGE HPC, WHICH CAUSED DAMAGE TO HPC STAGES TEN THRU SIXTEEN.  ALL DEFECTIVE COMPONENTS WILL BE REPLACED.
