Hung in the air (7)
![Ross](/clue/static/ross-mug.min.png)
I believe the answer is:
hovered
'hung in the air' is the definition.
('hover' can be a synonym of 'hang in the air')
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for hovered that I've seen before include "Remained in the air without moving" , "Floated" , "Remained in the one place in the air" , "Hung in the air" .)
