Narrative:
After liftoff, the captain called for gear up. As I put the gear handle up, I heard a loud boom and felt severe vibration on the #2 engine, and felt a corresponding yaw to the right. The captain called out engine failure and called for maximum power. He overboosted the good engine (#1) to about 2.10 EPR for approximately 10 seconds at this time. At first the aircraft would not climb then after a few moments was able to climb slowly. At 1000 ft was cleaned up and the #1 flight attendant was called to the cockpit and briefed. We had already declared an emergency with lih tower and at 1500 ft we turned downwind for runway 35 at lih. The after takeoff and engine failure and shutdown checklists were accomplished and the captain briefed the passenger on what was taking place. As we turned base leg for runway 35 at lih the '1 engine inoperative' checklist was completed and tower was briefed for number of passenger and fuel and emergency equipment was requested. An uneventful single engine flaps 15 degree landing was executed. Postflt found the #2 engine turbine section missing.

Narrative: AFTER LIFTOFF, THE CAPT CALLED FOR GEAR UP. AS I PUT THE GEAR HANDLE UP, I HEARD A LOUD BOOM AND FELT SEVERE VIBRATION ON THE #2 ENG, AND FELT A CORRESPONDING YAW TO THE R. THE CAPT CALLED OUT ENG FAILURE AND CALLED FOR MAX PWR. HE OVERBOOSTED THE GOOD ENG (#1) TO ABOUT 2.10 EPR FOR APPROX 10 SECONDS AT THIS TIME. AT FIRST THE ACFT WOULD NOT CLB THEN AFTER A FEW MOMENTS WAS ABLE TO CLB SLOWLY. AT 1000 FT WAS CLEANED UP AND THE #1 FLT ATTENDANT WAS CALLED TO THE COCKPIT AND BRIEFED. WE HAD ALREADY DECLARED AN EMER WITH LIH TWR AND AT 1500 FT WE TURNED DOWNWIND FOR RWY 35 AT LIH. THE AFTER TKOF AND ENG FAILURE AND SHUTDOWN CHKLISTS WERE ACCOMPLISHED AND THE CAPT BRIEFED THE PAX ON WHAT WAS TAKING PLACE. AS WE TURNED BASE LEG FOR RWY 35 AT LIH THE '1 ENG INOP' CHKLIST WAS COMPLETED AND TWR WAS BRIEFED FOR NUMBER OF PAX AND FUEL AND EMER EQUIP WAS REQUESTED.
