Pilot's side door?

[JimC]

This is why I was wondering:
"The Cessna 337C has two doors, one on each side of the cabin, adjacent to the front seats."

The non-pressurized do.

I've seen lots of pictures of early unpressurized 337s, but I still haven't seen a pilots side door - or even a large window that opens, for that matter.

Aviation Consumer July 2009:

"The beauty of 337s made before 1971 is the pilot’s side window opens for ventilation, like most Cessna singles. There is no pilot door as that side of the cockpit is awash with circuit breakers."

The Skymasters (non-pressurized) have one door - located on the right side (Starboard).
It has the typical Cessna opening window that is hinged on the top. The baggage door, also on the right side, is simply that - a baggage door, not an exit or entry (except for maybe a small animal). On the pilots side (port side) of the windscreen, there is a small vent window that opens (a little bit of airflow) and an emergency exit (pilots side window). It is only an emergency window and is not hinged - it is not used for ventilation.

My bad, I thought I had seen one but realize now I did not.
