Heres another one for you guys to solve... (This is for my 1/72 Scale SPit Mk 1a)
The codes are either "BT-K" or "AZ-H". There wasn't any paint scheme for either, and its moulded in blue :shock: Who wants a blue spit?!
 
Someone making a Photo-Recce, or NH if he decided to make Eizer Wiezman's black Spitfire...

Skin by tstorm...
 
AZ is the code for the 234 Squadron RAF, which flew Spitfires I, II, V, VI, and IX.

Spit Mk. I in 234 colors:

Was the spit coded BT-K a wing commanders Aircraft? Im asking this as BT was used for 30 OTU (operational Training unit) Bomber command.

Wing commanders were given the priviledge of making their own code for their Aircraft - perhaps it was his initials?
E.g R-B = Roland Beamont, IR-G = Ian Richard Gleed, D-B = Douglas Bader etc.
