Painting of the Avtek 9000T production design |
The AvtekAir 9000T is a six-eight place, twin-engine, turboprop airplane developed for the corporate and air taxi markets. It is the first advanced composite business plane to be built using Kevlar, Korex, graphite and fiberglass as its primary structural materials. The 9000T requires only one pilot. A complete co-pilot position is provided for those customers such as corporations who desire a two-pilot operation.
The AvtekAir 9000T is the successor to the experimental Avtek 400 "Proof-of-Concept" (POC) airplane, which was built to test and confirm analytical predictions of material strength, aerodynamic design, and performance. The performance specifications of the 9000T are unique in its class.
