Some of aircraft’s fliers, unhappy initially, see about delay (8)
I believe the answer is:
fuselage
'some of aircraft's fliers unhappy initially see about delay' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'fliers unhappy initially see about delay' is the wordplay.
'initially' indicates taking the first letters.
'about' is an insertion indicator.
'delay' becomes 'lag' (lag is a kind of delay).
The first letters of 'fliers unhappy' is 'fu'.
'see' placed around 'lag' is 'selage'.
'fu'+'selage'='FUSELAGE'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for fuselage that I've seen before include "Main body of aircraft" , "Aircraft's body" , "part of plane" , "body of fighter?" , "part of aircraft" .)
