Suspend on a top rail and planes can use it (6)
I believe the answer is:
hangar
'planes can use it' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'suspend on a top rail' is the wordplay.
'suspend' becomes 'hang' (to hang is to suspend from something).
'on' says to put letters next to each other.
'a top' means to remove the first letter.
'rail' becomes 'bar' (I've seen this in other clues).
'bar' with its first letter taken off is 'ar'.
'hang'+'ar'='HANGAR'
'and' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for hangar that I've seen before include "Big shed for aircraft" , "Large shed to house aircraft" , "Large shed for housing aircraft" , "plane perhaps here?" , "Plane garage" .)
