The 'W E Johns Appreciation Society'
and 'Biggles & Co' meet regularly in the UK. Biggles &
Co meet in Twyford in April and WEJAS meet in Derby in
October. Some people attend both meetings, and many contribute
articles to the magazine Biggles Flies Again. This
website hopes to serve all these interests, and welcomes all
those interested in the life and work of W E Johns. All are
welcome to our small, friendly meetings, no need to "join"
anything. There are talks by participants, opportunities to
browse the bookstalls and artwork on display, take part in a
quiz, and enjoy meeting other enthusiasts.
W E Johns died on 21st June 1968. A meeting was held in Kingston Cemetary to commemorate the 50th anniversary on Thursday 21st June 2018.
