True!

Also, has there ever been another low wing, single seat, monoplane fighter, in
active duty, with swinging side cockpit doors (like a car) instead of a sliding
canopy?

There is a tremendous amount of of interesting information about the P-39 here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bell_P-39_Airacobra

There is no attribution, but supposedly a modified P-39 won the Thomson trophy
in 1946.
