Narrative:

A vibration similar to the landing gear out or spoilers deployed was felt at about FL250. At that moment and to the end of the flight no abnormal indications were displayed in the cockpit but we nonetheless reduced speed to 250 KIAS and airplane response was normal. We continued descent; deployed gear as normal and vibration was the same. Then a boom noise was heard but with no changes in aircraft systems indication nor aircraft behavior or responses. No emergency was reported as all functions were normal. Landed uneventfully and a post flight walk around was performed revealed two access doors missing from the bottom of the wing to fuselage fairing and the frame angle that supported them broken. We notified bombardier aerospace and an investigation was opened. The aircraft has 314 total hours; and the lost panels have not been removed nor disturbed for any maintenance since aircraft delivery. Bombardier engineering issued a repair engineering order to make a temporary repair.
