I did check your link yesterday. But it only provides the history of a single aircraft (Spitfire II, Serial No. P7350) which was, according to your link, first delivered to No. 6 Maintenance Unit* in August 1940 and to No. 266 Squadron in September 1940. It was assigned to No. 57 Operational Training Unit in March 1942.
*every aircraft of was first assigned to a Maintenance Unit and than transferred to a Squadron.
I don't understand how you conclude from this link that the Spitfire II was first introduced in August 1940 in OTUs and wasn't used operational before September 1940.
