Place for flight, followed by English (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

skye

'place for flight followed by english' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'place for flight followed by english' is the wordplay.
'place for flight' becomes 'sky' (as in flying through the sky).
'followed by' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'english' becomes 'e' (abbreviation).
'sky'+'e'='SKYE'

(Other definitions for skye that I've seen before include "Scotland island" , "Portree island" , "Scottish isle" , "Large Scottish island" , "part of Scotland" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
