Airmen (8)

I believe the answer is:

aviators

'airmen' is the definition.
(I know this)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for aviators that I've seen before include "Airmen" , "They fly machines" , "Pilots" , "Flyers" , "Aeronauts" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph and The Guardian.
