Roger S. Dickson, who was a member of the design staff of the Supermarine Aviation Works Ltd, Woolston, Southampton, founded the Cloudcraft Glider Co as a spare time interest.
The Cloudcraft company was at Osborne Road, Southampton and produced in 1930 and 1931 a primary glider designed by Dickson. The Dickson Primaries were also built in great numbers by individuals and gliding clubs, although they were also offered for salt through the aviation department of Selfridges of Oxford Street, London.
The Phantom sailplane was designed and built by the company but this just about exhausted all the financial resources, and after the last advertisement had appeared in the 17 July 1931 issue of ‘Sailplane and Glider’ magazine the Cloudcraft Glider Co was declarad bankrupt.
The Cloudcraft company closed down towards the end of 1931.
