The rarest escapee to Switzerland was this Levente II communications monoplane, which left Linz on April 12, 1945, crewed by two Hungarian flying instructors. Dark green paint had been applied over the Hungarian markings and the aircraft landed at Dubendorf two hours later. Several instruments were missing and maintenance was said to be poor, but the aircraft survived and with its Hirth HM504 engine replaced by a Siemens radial entered the Swiss civil register as HB-TAC in May 1948; it crashed in August 1952. Some 70-80 Levente IIs were built in Hungary.
