Only one piece of the puzzle left.


I have a problem with 19 down. I believe the definition is "vertigo" and that the answer is "Megrim".


One half of the solution comes from the preceding clue and the other half from the following clue. All I can get is:


A) Our man in Europe holding back Soviet aircraft (Megimp)


B) Plates setter in close atmosphere (fullMeg)


Both aprts seem to lead to Meg, where does Rim come from? Is it a mistake? Anyone any ideas?


Thanks in advance.

I seem to recall this puzzle from several months ago and the answer was definitely MEGRIM (Vertigo). I have forgotten the rationale but i'll look back in my files and come back if I've anything. Your answer is right though!

Thanks for the confirmation. Getting the answer is only half of the job and it's nice to know how it's arrived at. Any suggestions will be most welcome. It's only taken me 3 months to complete. Never like to give up entirely.
