I was reading up on this a little bit.  The AG-14 is essentially the W-1A
design, which was the test bed design that Fred Weick made in the 30's
while
refining his ideas on making a safer airplane.

The AG-14 was built in the 40's by some guys who got a hold of his design,
but they failed to sell in the aircraft slump and only produced a handfull
of them.

The plane is a high-wing, pusher prop with a twin boom behind.  Don't know
if the AG has the 2 control rudders, etc...
