Ross

I believe the answer is:

tailspin

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">state of panic</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this before)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for tailspin that I've seen before include "Spiral aeroplane dive" , "confused state" , "Chaotic situation" , "Spiral dive of aircraft in trouble" , "Alpinist (anag) -- state of panic" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
