Is the aircraft 3RD from the bottom with the silver & red finish a post WWII scheme or during the war? Any information any one has would be great thanks.

Go here and scroll down a bit:

Apparently it was an aircraft from a Soviet aerobatic team from late 1945; the source is given as the AJ Press Yak-7/Yak-9 monograph.

Hi all,
I don't think it's an all-metal plane. I see at least one panel line on the wing, but not on the rear fuselage, apart for the plate at the root of the stabilizer.
Regards
Massimo
