- The Letov 101, two Argus As 410, for 12 passengers and two crew

The HK-101 was actually built and flown (3 September 1947) and maybe even two examples were completed (I'm not sure).

You're right, sorry ! Was too biased by a comment, that for a twin engined
two-seater probably isn't a large market, due to the higher price for purchase
and maintenance.
