## Discrepancy

NOISE NOTICED DURING FLIGHT,  FOLLOWED BY SMOKE FROM AIR CONDITIONING VENTS.  PILOT PERFORMED A PRECAUTIONARY LANDING.  TECH DISCOVERED FORWARD EVAPORATOR MOTOR TO BE INOPERATIVE, FURTHER INVESTIGATION REVEALED THAT THE FAN BROKE APART INTERNALLY CAUSING THE BLOWER MOTOR TO OVERHEAT.
