Some I've come up with:
British
Stiff upper lip
Dry
Cool
Daring
Algy's Cousin
I think "dry" seems to be the best. I've noticed that he always gets rather sarcastic after a bit.

To describe Biggles

It's sort of a game, I guess. Can you think of one word or phrase that you'd use to describe bIggles?

"I got one of them."
"You what?"
"I shot one down."

Satirical... and
quick thinking and
crazy in a good way and
inventive and
just a bit perverse, if that's the word I'm looking for that means you want to do the opposite of what people tell you to!

I've noticed that soft of negative streak he has..you know, when people tell him not to go and fight the war in *princess Mariette country * he's all "Oh, okay then, let's go."
Me, I'd be going, "okay, then, let's not go"
* he's all "Oh, okay then, let's go."Me, I'd be going, "okay, then, let's not go"
"I got one of them."
"You what?"
"I shot one down."

Ooh definitely dashing! 
I can't think of a phrase to say he'd give any person an equal chance, of whatever race or age... well, pretty much.
