I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'the air?' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether this works.

'windfall change' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'change' could be 'pennies' (I've seen this before) and 'pennies' is present in the answer.

'in' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for pennies from heaven that I've seen before include "signalling coppers' downfall" , "coppers falling?" , "Change out of blue" , "Song" , "Number" .)
