Flyer; guide (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pilot

I believe this is a double definition.

'flyer' is the first definition.
(I know that flyer can be written as pilot)

'guide' is the second definition.
(pilot can mean a navigator)

(Other definitions for pilot that I've seen before include "Navigate" , "Plane driver" , "One licensed to fly" , "Aviator" , "experimental programme" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
