## Discrepancy

NOTICED A BURNING SMELL IN THE COCKPIT, INTERMITTENT, NOT STRONG BUT NOTICEABLE.  THE SOURCE WAS NEAR THE RIGHT CLEAR VIEW WINDOW HEAT SENSOR.  INSPECTED WIRING AND TEMP.  SENSOR AT FIRST OFFICER'S CLEAR VIEW WINDOW.  CHECKED FORWARD ACCESSORY COMPARTMENT AND E/E COMPARTMENT.  NO DEFECTS OR SMELL NOTED.
