Antonov An-12 Cockpit Door.

This is the outside, as seen from the galley. What appear to be windows are actually ventillation ports as this is not a pressure door. Note that there are six additional ports which have been covered over. The method of painting may give the impression that this door was on the outside of the aircraft but it is not unusual for the interior of Russian aircraft to be painted in this way i.e. two colours with a dividing cheatline.
