## Discrepancy

IND-DCA - FLT 769 - AFTER TAKEOFF THE RIGHT ENGINE HAD A COMPRESSOR STALL THAT LASTED FOR ABOUT 3 SECONDS..  THIS WAS ACCOMPLISHED BY AN UNUSUAL ODOR IN THE CABIN.  THE AIRCRAFT RETURNED TO THE FIELD AND LANDED WITHOUT INCIDENT.  MAINTENANCE FOUND EVIDENCE OF A BIRD STRIKE.  THE ENGINE WAS INSPECTED AND NO DAMAGE WAS FOUND.  (M)
