Biggles Learns To Fly (2003) By Captain W.E. Johns
 
Biggles Learns to Fly started life as 12 separate short stories published individually in The Modern Boy between April-June 1934. In November 1935, the stories were gathered and published over 24 chapters in paperback form by the Boy's Friend Library with "Flying Officer W. E. Johns" as the author. Even this first book edition deviated significantly from the original Modern Boy version. One of the stories, Knights of the Sky was moved from its original sequence to the end of the book, and heavily edited to make it fit.
 
Learns to Fly was not seen again until 1955 when Brockhampton republished a edited version which comprised only 16 chapters. One story, Spy in the Sky was left out totally as it had already been used in Biggles of 266. Subsequent editions by Armada, Red Fox varied in their adherence to the original format.
 
In 2010, Norman Wright republished Learns to Fly in a format which, barring minor editing, is the closest approach to the text as originally published in The Modern boy.
