As a young fella (long time ago) I was lucky enough to get a jump seat ride on the midnight freighter out of Essendon to Launceston and back. Climbing out of Melbourne the window heater on the captains side shorted out. The MEL requirement was to limit speed to 250kts above and below 10000ft and the aircraft was out of action once returned to the nearest maintenance port until the fault was cleared
