The Cranwell Light Aeroplane Club was formed in 1923 by staff and students of the RAF College Cranwell to design and build light aircraft. One of the members was Flight Lieutenant Nicholas Comper who became the Chief Designer. Comper and the club designed and built four aircraft with the last three types being flown.
The Cranwell CLA.1 (a single bay, single seater biplane) was the first attempt by the Club to design an aircraft but was never built. This was followed by the CLA.2, CLA.3, and CLA.4, which were built.
Nicholas Comper went on to form Comper aircraft.
