US airline employing college rock fan in 50s (6)
I believe the answer is:
united
'us airline employing' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'college rock fan in 50s' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'college' could be 'uni' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'uni' is found in the answer.
The remaining letters 'ted' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for united that I've seen before include "Joined together -- in duet (anag)" , "Joined in marriage" , "Joined or combined" , "Amalgamated" , "See 14" .)
