Sergeant Bigglesworth CID: the first Special Air Police book, includes the return of von Zoyton from Sweeps the Desert, with h/c and rescuing enemies
Biggles's Second Case: as you might guess, the second Special Air Police book, in which Biggles hunts a Nazi submarine trying to escape with looted gold, with ALL the Secret Island Base and presumed dead adventures you could ever want
Biggles and the Rescue Flight: Biggles for slightly younger readers, WW1 book about some different kids who run away from school and end up in Biggles's squadron, interesting outsider POV on Biggles and Algy
Biggles Makes Ends Meet: this one is set overseas hunting pirates and therefore has the usual dose of Oh WEJ No, but also has an amazingly busy plot with storms, pirate islands and Bertie being fabulous with shark's teeth
Biggles Delivers the Goods: WW2 adventure trying to obtain rubber from Japanese-occupied Malaysia, some period-typicalness but also an excellent Chinese character, Li Chi, former pirate, who conducts some joint pirate/military raids with Biggles. Also has a bit where Algy is MIA and Biggles muses on how he would cope if Algy died </3
