In *Biggles Flies North*, Biggles, Algy, and Ginger fly in to help an old friend counter the attempts of a vicious gang to stifle his air freight business in Canada. In *Biggles Sees it Through*, at the outbreak of World War II Biggles and his crew struggle to help a Polish scientist prevent his revolutionary aircraft designs from falling into the hands of Biggles’s old enemy Major Von Stalhein. In *Biggles in the Baltic*, Biggles’s first mission of the war sees him taken by submarine to a hidden air base in the Baltic, where he is to set up a secret unit of the RAF. In *Biggles in the Jungle*, our hero lands in Belize where he helps the local British governor destroy a gang of thugs who have enslaved native workers in the depths of the jungle.
