Operational flight (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sortie

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">operational flight</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for sortie that I've seen before include "Short foray" , "Single military flight" , "Military aircraft's flight" , "Attack by a besieged garrison" , "Military foray" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
