I think the Biggles reference is an extension of the theme, but maybe not so well known. Thankfully, the link clue works fine if you ignore Biggles completely.

Rosalind, thanks again - worked my way (hurriedly) through Roget's, but didn't come up with anything. Am heading out now, but will leave the clue germinating in my brain.
