Female telling stories in a plane? (6)
I believe the answer is:
flying
'plane?' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are adjectives. Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'female telling stories' is the wordplay.
'female' becomes 'f' (abbreviation).
'telling stories' becomes 'lying' (I've seen this in another clue).
'f'+'lying'='FLYING'
'in a' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for flying that I've seen before include "-- Squad; -- doctor" , "Moving quickly" , "shooting" , "-- boat; -- buttress" , "& 20 Maritime aircraft" .)
