Aim to go through the top of Delaware and get off in New York? (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

deplane

'get off in new york?' is the definition.
(US term meaning to get off a plane)

'aim to go through the top of delaware' is the wordplay.
'aim' becomes 'plan' (I've seen this before).
'to go through' indicates putting letters inside.
'the top of delaware' becomes 'dee' (D is the top letter of Delaware).
'plan' placed within 'dee' is 'DEPLANE'.

'and' is the link.

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
