Can any Russian or anyone who can read/speak Russian please translate this picture please. I just need the description of the planes from top to bottom. If not then I will look around in other forums till I find it.

To be specific I really want to know the first one on this picture below and the very last one on the picture below

White 33 is already in game. It was a 1945 3 cannon La7 flown by Lt. Col. V.F. Golubyev of 4 GIAP of the Baltic Fleet
White 63 was flown during the winter of 44/45 and was part of 813 IAP
I dont have a reference to white 03 but can confirm the 2 diagonal tail stripes were for 32GIAP
I have several references to white 17 of 9 GIAP. The arrow should be white with a red border and is a reference to show that 9GIAP was then part of the mighty 303IAD. None of the references show the engine covers in red...only the cowl. One reference shows a single colour upper fuselage as per white 93 below it.
White 93 is in game. it is Dolgushins, Comander of 156 IAP.
I doubt white 14 flew combat in those colours. It belonged to Major A. V Aleljuchin of 9GIAP during the battle for berlin in Spring 45 (9GIAP no longer part of 303IAD) the heart was red with a yellow arrow but the fuslage was almost certainly mono grey with a red donor inscription below the port cockpit. Note many LA7's were painted garish colours when moved around the USSR as part of (post war) roving displays of "VVS greatness". Having said that a Czech publication states that Aleljuchin himself claims to have flown the all red version.
Cant find a white 28 in my tombs it may be a Czech Regiment I have Black and white picture showing it in a staged "scramble" some time in 44.
The tail square patch of white 99 shows its regiment which acording to one reference I have is unknown. As is white 99.
The last two are post war Czech skins.

Allegedly it did.
This link refers to how it became red.

The description above White 28 says 17 IAP 7 IAD VVS Pacific Fleet and the description above White 99 just says VVS Pacific Fleet
