Thank you!

My favourite setter but this was a bit of a mixed bag for me. I had to Google some of the answers so, overall, somewhat unsatisfying :-(

My final clue really stumping me. 17ac Possible source of wind resistance in jets. I have s?r?u?s any help gratefully received!

Think Xmas dinner?

Of course! Thanks ab I can get on with my day now...

Annoyingly, I still have 9A outstanding, just two letters missing!
Is it an obscure adventurer/ explorer? My only other one outstanding is 20A, again just two letters missing. Another obscure explorer?

Think of an alternative meaning for mount for the first four letters then e

Yes - think of a means of travel

All are particular types of explorer - googling a list of astronauts might help

Thanks, zozozo.

For 1d I have the expression meaning very much but have no idea where the cake comes in or the rest except the B and the F I guess. Can you explain?
Also I wrote Faith for 21d (belief in female setter perhaps) but that seems wrong and random. Is there a female setter called something like Creed or Tenet?.

1s cake = bar (eg soap or chocolate)
F & y tips of forty or fifty
