To me this look like a full upper repaint, while Temperate Land Scheme and Day Fighter Scheme were acceptable to the VVS, the Desert Scheme would only work
in Southern Russia, which would explain a more extensive repaint perhaps.
I refer you back to the photo in the first post
note the very non RAF camo pattern, and the light upper part of the canopy hood framing,
the canopy area being the part usually in Middle Stone, but
the dark lower rail, which is the same tone as the paint on the fuselage below. This is a very good candidate for VVS repaint from a Desert scheme
The different appearance of the star and underside can be caused by different films and lens filters, and the 'dark' UC door maybe just a lighting effect,
looking again, the sunlight is coming from behind, onto the starboard side, so that maybe shadow.
I don't know if you can ask PGmonster where the 67 IAP was based?
The other possibility, is a VVS repaint after a winter scheme using permanent white?
Anyway, I'm very happy that I can post again, and discuss these fascinating images, hopefully yet more photos will appear and some new schemes will be
documented.
cheers
