Notice helmet flap for counsel? (7)
I believe the answer is:
advisor
'counsel?' is the definition.
(I know that advisor can be written as advisor)
'notice helmet flap' is the wordplay.
'notice' becomes 'ad' (short for advert).
'helmet flap' becomes 'visor' (I've seen this before).
'ad'+'visor'='ADVISOR'
'for' is the link.
(Other definitions for advisor that I've seen before include "consultant" , "Guide; VI roads (anag.)" , "One giving counsel (O, not E)" , "I recommend" , "One offers recommendations" .)
