## Discrepancy

INFLIGHT ON CLIMB-OUT AT ABOUT 10,000 FT, LOUD NOISE HEARD WITH SLIGHT YAW TO THE LEFT.  INFLIGHT INSPECTION REVEALED PANELS MISSING ABOVE THE NR 2 ENGINE PYLON AND DAMAGE TO THE LEADING EDGE OF THE WING JUST ABOVE THE NR 2 ENGINE PYLON.  NO ABNORMAL FLIGHT INDICATIONS AFTERWARDS, AND FLIGHT CONTINUED UNEVENTFUL TO DESTINATION.  FURTHER INSPECTION ON GROUND REVEALED THAT LEFT AND RIGHT CORE COWLS TO THE NR 2 ENGINE CAME OFF, CREATING FURTHER SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE TO MULTIPLE AIRCRAFT AREAS.
