No.42 is clearly visible.
The plane on the background is numered 92, but the cover on its nose let us in doubt if it wore a solid white finish too.
This unit had some La-5F VCh too, painted in winter scheme.

This plane shows a solid white uppersurface with light blue undersurface.
The word "Eskadrilya" is nearly disappeared, and "Valeriy Chkalow" is faded too. The number could be in a lighter shade of red, or any other light color as orange, yellow or light blue. On the other side, there should be written "Ot Kolkhoznikov i kolkhoznits
Gorkovskoy oblasti"
