Scrap aerialist's wild and windy flight? (6,9)
![Ross](/clue/static/ross-mug.min.png)
I believe the answer is:
spiral staircase
'windy flight?' is the definition.
'spiral staircase' can be an answer for 'flight?' (I've seen this before). I am not sure about the 'windy' bit.
'scrap aerialist's wild' is the wordplay.
'wild' indicates anagramming the letters.
'scrap'+'aerialists'='scrapaerialists'
'scrapaerialists' with letters rearranged gives 'SPIRAL STAIRCASE'.
'and' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for spiral staircase that I've seen is " Not a direct flight".)
