Model, leg in the air? (3-2)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pin-up

'model' is the definition.
(pin-up is a kind of model)

'leg in the air?' is the wordplay.
'leg' becomes 'pin' (pin is a kind of leg).
'in the air?' becomes 'up'.
'pin'+'up'='PIN-UP'

(Other definitions for pin-up that I've seen before include "Alluring poster" , "Cover girl" , "(Picture of) sexually attractive person" , "Sexy model" , "Poster of an attractive person" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
