Markings of aircraft at 71OTU Ismailia, 1944

[Hamiltonian]

I'm now starting work on another model of an obscure aircraft. I want to build a Hurricane IIB used at 71 Operational Training Unit, RAF, when it operated at Ismailia, specifically in late 1943 early 1944.
I have a single photo of the starboard side of one such aircraft, marked A-14 (no tail number discernable), as well as a list of tail numbers of IIBs dispatched to 71OTU during my time of interest. (I'm slightly resigned to the idea of building A-14 with a plausible but likely incorrect tail number.)
I was wondering if anyone had any more information on IIBs in this location and time, or even some information about how the squadron letters and numbers were applied on the port side of aircraft at Ismailia in this time frame!

You might try asking the question on Britmodeller. There are all sorts of sad geeks there who just love esoteric questions! How do I know? 'Cos I is one (but, alas, not in the area of 71 OTU serial numbers)!

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll go and do that.
