Where dragonfly might land, making surge forward? (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

onrush

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

'surge forward?' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'where dragonfly might land' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'land' could be 'us' (US is an example) and 'us' is located in the answer.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).

'making' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for onrush that I've seen before include "Forward charge of Hurons" , "Swarm" , "Attack" , "Forceful forward flow" , "Forward surge" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
