Myro, the Smallest Plane in the World, and his pilot are exploring the Australian countryside when they spot a smoking red flare on a remote airfield. Flying down to see if they can help, Myro notices a skull and crossbones on the roof of the hangar and fears that it's a secret pirate hideaway! Sure enough, within moments of landing, the air is filled with skydivers calling themselves the Parachute Pirates.

Michael, Myro's pilot, is away on holiday, and the Smallest Plane in the World is bored and unable to fly. To make matters worse, Rayco, the old diesel railcar that chugs past the Flying Club, gently teases Myro every day, calling him a flying lawnmower!

Two ultralight aeroplanes are trapped in their hangar and Myro can't get any response to his MAYDAY call. His only choice is to fly without his pilot until he gets a signal. The brave little plane takes off through the thick black smoke to call the control tower, and an emergency team is scrambled to the rescue. Myro might have broken the rules to fly alone, but now he's a hero.

Myro, the Smallest Plane in the World, meets a broken-down Tiger Moth in a barn on an Australian farm, but discovers the old plane's propeller and wings are gone and his rivets are rusted. Tymo entertains Myro with stories from his exciting past, but explains how he is now abandoned and unlikely to fly again. Myro is so concerned that he gets help from the museum's engineer to search for the vital spare parts needed to restore his friend to his former glory.

The first book in this new series follows Myro, the Smallest Plane in the World, from his home in the UK to a new life in the Australian Bush. Travelling with a bright red London double decker bus, they soon arrive at the Flying Club, hundreds of kilometers north of Sydney.

Whilst Myro loves being the smallest plane in the world, he doesn't like being teased about his size and being called a flying lawnmower! And when Jimo the jet fighter adds insult to injury by scaring Myro out of his own airspace, Myro gets really fed up.

When the evil Skelloids launch an attack upon the 17 worlds of the Generios system, its peace-loving inhabitants face total destruction. So it's fortunate that the famous traveller in time and space known only as the Doctor is in the area - and doubly lucky that with the help of his pretty young assistant, Sally-Anne, he manages to defeat the deadly creatures and save the day. But now it looks as though the Doctor's luck has run out.
