Jet's forward movement (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

airspeed

(Other definitions for airspeed that I've seen before include "what Wellington could have got up to" , "that keeps one flying?" , "rate of knots" , "Flying velocity" , "Jumbo with such rapidity?" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press.
