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' indicates a hidden word.
'ALCOCK' is hidden in the letters of 'dual cockpit'.
'with brown' acts as a link.
This may not be right. Some or all of it may belong to 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" .)
