Hi Steph, hi all,
I was interested to plane 14 some years ago and I remember that it was discussed on Sovietwarplanes. I think to remember that the plane could have been built as a La-5F, and later converted into a La-5FN replacing the engine and cowling. I think to remember that the photo of 14 in this configuration don't show the line of the triangular metal panel on the sides, behind the visible metallic one; this triangular panel, camouflaged, was on all La-5FNs built as such, but not on La-5F nor on La-5F converted into FN.
Regards
Massimo
