Aviator with Brown in dual cockpit? (6)
I believe the answer is:
alcock
'aviator' is the definition.
(I know that Alcock is a aviator)
'in dual cockpit?' is the wordplay.
'in' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'ALCOCK' can be found hidden inside 'dual cockpit'.
'with brown' acts as a link.
This may not be correct. Some or all of it may be part of another bit of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for alcock that I've seen before include "Brown's Atlantic flying partner" , "Aviator with 7 [BROWN]" , "Early aviator" , "British aviator who flew Atlantic with Brown" , "Flyer" .)
