Summary
His vigilance uncharacteristically relaxed for one fatal minute, Biggles only heard the third triplane when it was too late, and the half-roll he automatically performed to try and evade the withering fire was pointless. Before he had had time to fully grasp the situation, he noticed tiny flames licking backwards from his engine, and dived in an effort not to let them reach the doped fabric that covered the machine.

"Isn't it beautiful?" the new arrival was his friend Algy Lacey, who joined him in his window seat of the 266 squadron mess. "It's blotted out everything!"

Summary
As Biggles looked up at Wat, Algy arrived at the side of the stationery Camel. He'd watched it land, and when Biggles hadn't exited the cockpit to read the signal, he wondered what was going on. As he mounted the other wing and saw the bloodstained handkerchief binding his cousin's temple, he knew he had been justified in his worry.

Summary
Letter to parachute manufacturer Schroeder from Leutnant Helmut Steinbrecher, who on the evening of June 27th 1918 successfully baled out of his burning Jasta 46 Albatros after an encounter with a British Camel, the first pilot on either side to escape a flaming aircraft and live.
'I congratulate you on the splendid success of your parachute. I am carrying it ever since that flight and do not want to fly without it any more. As far as I know this was the first time that a parachute was used under actual wartime conditions and that it was used for a jump from a single-seater to boot. Congratulations once again on your excellent parachute.'

Summary
As you may remember, our heroes were anxious to leave Bolivia for a time after an encounter with a witch doctor and the accidental inhalation of some local herbs. We left them about to interview a certain Professor Smilee, to see if he could provide them with paid employment elsewhere, preferably an elsewhere a long, long way from La Paz. It goes without saying, that the story told by Biggles to W E Johns (The Blue Orchid, Biggles Flies Again) has been heavily censored. However, I happen to have access to Biggles’s original diaries, in which he records what really happens. The first part of the story will be familiar. The second has not, to my knowledge, previously been shared.
