Flight unit crossword clue
62 Down · WSJ Crossword, August 27, 2026 · 4 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Flight unit” is STEP. It appears as 62 Down in the Wall Street Journal crossword of August 27, 2026, a Thursday puzzle titled “In a Pet” by Mike Shenk, and it fills 4 squares running top to bottom from row 12, column 15 of the 15×15 grid.
The clue is a straightforward definition, so the answer is a direct synonym or a factual match for the words as written. The entry begins with S and ends with P, and contains 1 vowel and 3 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Across entries should be enough to lock it in. Thursday puzzles lean harder on misdirection, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
