The bought the rights to every plane Bridi had been selling at the time, as Great Planes bought the entire company. Bridi retired about a year or so and started a new company, some of those planes were redisigned version of older designs, such as the Krafty trainer, the Chaos series, and the Breezy bipe. I don['t know how he got away with the Dirty Birdy, or was the original a Dirty Bridi?
