I believe the answer is:

pegasus

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

'flying horse' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'fixer like you and me' is the wordplay.
'fixer' becomes 'peg' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'like' becomes 'as'.
'you and me' becomes 'us' (the two of us).
'peg'+'as'+'us'='PEGASUS'

'reveals' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for pegasus that I've seen before include "Flying horse of myth" , "high horse" , "group of stars" , "Exceptional horse" , "madeup creature" .)
