## Discrepancy

WHILE EN ROUTE TO FSD, FLIGHT 140 HAD A SLIGHT ODOR IN THE COCKPIT.  ISOLATED TO AROUND FIRST OFFICER'S MAP LIGHT.  PULLED MAP LIGHT CIRCUIT BREAKER, ODOR APPEARED TO GO AWAY.  DURING DESCENT, AROUND 8000 FT, ODOR RE-APPEARED.  NO OTHER INDICATIONS, (I.E. SMOKE, ETC.).  VERIFIED MAP LIGHT OKAY FOR SERVICE.  ISOLATED SMELL TO FIRST OFFICER'S CLEARVIEW WINDOW ANTI-FOG WINDOW HEAT.  WORK IN PROGRESS.
