The first type of plane the company produced was the Model A' Bird which was powered by World War One surplus Curtiss OX-5 engines, and sold for $3150. At the end of 1929 Brunner Winkle introduced the Model B' Bird, with the more powerful Kinner B-5 engine. The Bird was unique in that it had a thick upper wing which allowed great control at low speeds and it also featured a radiator under the fuselage giving it the appearance of a Curtiss Hawk fighter. However, Brunner Winkle closed their doors in 1931 due to slow sales during the Depression. Nonetheless, during their short history the Bird was considered to be a fine airplane. In 1929 Elinor Smith set a new world endurance record in a Bird and in 1930 Charles Lindbergh purchased one to teach his wife to fly as he admired the Bird's flying qualities. Of the 220 Birds built, about 70 survive.
