The Verilite Model 100 Sunbird was a low-cost light aircraft developed in the United States in the 1980s. It was developed by De Vore Aviation a company that manufactures aircraft components as a first foray into aircraft manufacturing. When initiated in 1983 the goal of the project was to create a two-seat light aircraft that could be sold for less than $US 20000. Additionally it was hoped that the Sunbird operating costs would be half that of a conventional two-seat aircraft.
