Male strips off getting backward flow of air? (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

slipstream

'backward flow of air?' is the definition.
(slipstream can mean an air current)

'male strips off' is the wordplay.
'off' indicates an anagram.
'male'+'strips'='malestrips'
'malestrips' anagrammed gives 'SLIPSTREAM'.

'getting' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for slipstream that I've seen before include "Air driven back by a propeller" , "Lams priest (anag.)" , "Closely follow" , "Air current" , "Draught" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
