Can anybody tell me anything about the different Spitfire squadrons that are represented by the different 21C planes (74th, 118th, and 610th) ?

I've done the basic Google searches with no luck...

The 610 was at Biggen Hill and at the heart of the Battle of Britain:

The NKK flew out of Ibsley and has a good profile in Teamski's profile album. It was flown from 4/41 through 7/41 and can be seen under the 118th here:
