By Matt Bittner

This set of La-5 markings cover the following aircraft:

• La-5 of Pavel Kocfelda flying in the Czechoslovak first fighter regiment, ATM-11/ATM-12 over ATM-7, aircraft had "Rene" printed under the cockpit
• La-5FN, 63 GvIAP, flown by A.P Maresev, 1943, AMT-4/AMT-6 over AMT-7
• La-5FN, 32 GvIAP, 3 GvIAP, 1 GvIAK flown by Vladimir Orehov, Leningrad, July 1944, AMT-11/AMT-12 over AMT-7
• La-5, Commander of 1nd AE, Ivan Lavejkin, Stalingrad Front, Winter 1942-1943, finished in a "winter-white" scheme over AMT-7
• La-5, flown by Colonel G.D. Onukrienko, Spring 1944, AMT-11/AMT-12 over AMT-7
• La-5F, Captain Beljasnik, 126 IAP, 1943, AMT-11/AMT-12 over AMT-7
• La-5, flown by S.I. Harchenko, 1943 – this one can be finished in one of two ways: AMT-4/AMT-6 over AMT-7, or the tops overpainted in "winter white" with different personal markings

Decals are in register with nice colors. All aircraft have either a port or starboard color profile, and each different coloring has a small top color profile as well.

Thank you to Print Scale for the review sample.
