Another possible effect: a long while back I went a few knots over Vfe in a Mooney Bravo (and I really mean a few - maybe 5, and for a few seconds). Presumably the flaps are held down by the motor, because the breaker popped but (oddly) the flaps stayed put. We could not reset the breaker. We landed OK and by then I guess the breaker had cooled down because it reset OK too. We inspected and there was no damage.
