The Cranwell CLA.4 was single-engined two-seat inverted sesquiplane designed and constructed for the 1926 Lympne trials by an amateur group from RAF College Cranwell. Two were entered though engine problems prevented one from taking part; the other was eliminated with a broken undercarriage. A third aircraft was amateur built in Canada and flew until 1934.
