High fliers showing Christopher points (5)
I believe the answer is:
kites
'high fliers' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'christopher points' is the wordplay.
'christopher' becomes 'Kit' (short for Christopher).
'points' becomes 'Es' (two compass points).
'kit'+'es'='KITES'
'showing' is the link.
(Other definitions for kites that I've seen before include "Large hawks or flying toys" , "More than one toy" , "They're flown in the wind at the end of a string" , "aircraft" , "Birds of prey - flying toys" .)
