Spitfires 122 Squadron 1942 info.

[Jimbob7]

 

I would be interested to hear if anyone has knowledge of WWII Spitfire fuselage code markings.  Specifically April 1942 Hornchurch Wing ,122 Squadron, Spitfire Vb. BL462.

Code marks for 122 Squadron started with 'MT'.

 

At present I have the following :

 

SPITFIRES 122 Squadron
Spitfire Vb    BL462    MT-  ?
Spitfire Vb    AR400    MT-D
Spitfire Vb    BL348    MT-M
Spitfire Vb    BM138    MT-N
Spitfire Vb    BM203    MT- ?
Spitfire Vb    BM210    MT-F
Spitfire Vb    BM237    MT- ?
Spitfire Vb    BM241    MT-D
Spitfire Vb    BM252    MT-E    Bombay City 4
Spitfire Vb    BM321    MT-T    Bombay City 6
Spitfire Vb    BM352    MT-Z
Spitfire Vb    BM404    MT-A
Spitfire Vb    W3368    MT-V
Spitfire Vb    W3407    MT-R
 

Any relevant information would be appreciated.
