The company was registered on 21 March 1985 and went out of business early in the 21st century.[1][2]

The company produced a series of all-metal light aircraft, including the Brutsche Freedom 40 single-seater and at least two four seat designs, the Brutsche Freedom 180 STOL and Brutsche Freedom 210 STOL. The Freedom series of aircraft are all numbered after their engine horsepower.[1][3]

In April 2015 no examples of any Brutsche designs were registered in the United States with the Federal Aviation Administration, and it is likely that none exist anymore.[4]
