Ditched plane caught side on in crash (10)
I believe the answer is:
jettisoned
'ditched' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'plane caught side on in crash' is the wordplay.
'plane' becomes 'jet' (jet plane).
'caught' becomes 't' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'in crash' indicates an anagram.
'side'+'on'='sideon'
'sideon' anagrammed gives 'isoned'.
'jet'+'t'+'isoned'='JETTISONED'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for jettisoned that I've seen before include "Threw away" , "Thrown overboard" , "dumped" , "Ditched" , "thrown out of plane" .)
