Hi Hesham!
Actually, this list represents military designations given by postwar Czechoslovakian Air Force to different aircraft they had in service. It doesn't mean that all of these types were produced in Czechoslovakia, moreover by Avia.
 
OK my dear Redstar,


but for Avia,not all of those designations related to it.
 
Hi,


from L + K magazine,here is the Avia Av.236 light aircraft drawing and Info.

Hi,

I add some unknown Projects to the list.
 
From Taschenbuch der Luftflotten 1924-1925,

here is a big discover,the Avia BH-14 was a single engined 12-passenger transport
airplane,powered by one 450 hp Lorraine,the BH-15 was a two-seat recce airplane,
powered by one 450 hp Lorraine.

Also BH-18 was a twin engined large transport airplane,intended to accommodate
32-passenger in 1924,all of them were a Projects only as I guess.

I hope my dear Jemiba to confirm or add on this.
