Thanks mathi, but I don´t understand first part of clue

6a: Look up the first three letters in Chambers. It is also a slang for noisy scene. Crossword setters usually thrive on such slangs or obscure definitions to make their puzzles more difficult.

I always find it consoling to see that there were so many (51!) entries. That means lots of solvers were having trouble. I sailed along and then got stuck. I understand 13 now -- have to pay more attention to clues like 'said'. The one I can't parse is 12. Help please?
\Thanks

Hi catcharmer,
12… 6 letter word for pilots (as a verb) reversed around one letter for time (the first one), followed by a 5 letter word for ‘each’ (as in ‘how much would they cost ‘each’)

…sorry, that last piece is 1,4 (not 5)

Thanks jono!

Yeah quite tricky for an Everyman, had to come here to get the last one (6A), I thought it might have begun with B instead, couldn't work out why.

8D and 19D my clues of the day I think.

I can't parse 16A either but it must be correct. I'm no good at French

use google translate to find the french word for pig...

Ah google translate fails to list it first (in the box) again...
