The Avtek 400A was an American prototype turboprop -powered business aircraft developed in the early 1980s. It was of unusual and distinctive configuration: a low-wing monoplane with two pusher engines mounted above the wings, and a large canard mounted atop the forward fuselage . The aircraft's sleek, futuristic design earned it a guest appearance on the Airwolf X-400 , the plane used by the villain Lou Stappleford in the episode Eagles .
The Avtek's structure made extensive use of advanced composite materials throughout.
In 1998, Avtek declared bankruptcy without the prototype having completed the testing required for US FAA type certification . The company's assets were purchased by AvtekAir , who as of 2004[update] AvtekAir 9000T .
