Best flirt organised rescue if all routes blocked? (7)
I believe the answer is:
airlift
'rescue if all routes blocked?' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'best flirt organised' is the wordplay.
'best' becomes 'ai' (resembles 'A1', old-fashioned term for excellent).
'organised' indicates anagramming the letters.
'flirt' is an anagram of 'rlift'.
'ai'+'rlift'='AIRLIFT'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for airlift that I've seen before include "Emergency action by planes" , "(Emergency) flight" , "delivery" , "Transportation of goods to inaccessible place" , "Rescue flight" .)
