The pilot's window opens! Does anyone know if that can be retrofitted to earlier models?

Its one of those bubble windows. I've never seen one on a 337, but they are popular with the 172/182 crowd.

It's not just a bubble - it's a bubble on a hinged frame. I haven't seen that before.

Anyone know how to go about getting that conversion?

Herb - are you suggesting that one has it?

I've been doing some google photos research - it appears that some (maybe all?) F337Gs had hinged pilot windows - I've found more than one. The 337Gs from Cessna do not.

Did you see this close-up of the window? The second pic is the passenger door - they added three windows to it! What is the "air deflector" thing mounted in front of the passenger window???

It has a ROLLS ROYCE TSIO-360! Even has RR on the rocker covers - How cool is that?

I just noticed that it has the 225HP engines installed at the factory instead of the usual 210HP engines. So essentially its a Turbo Skymaster with the engines from a Pressurized Skymaster - 30HP more than any other Turbo model!

No wonder Reims used it as the military demo model!
