Part of flight from street broadcast (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

stair

'part of flight' is the definition.
(as in a flight of stairs)

'street broadcast' is the wordplay.
'street' becomes 'st' (abbreviation).
'broadcast' becomes 'air' (to air on TV).
'st'+'air'='STAIR'

'from' is the link.

(Other definitions for stair that I've seen before include "One of a 15" , "one's seen in flight" , "this could get one down" , "A step on the way up or down" , "One of a flight of steps" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
