Craft of King George entertaining idle bastard (6)

Abb.for King George around given anagram=craft

Good point, cryptically made!
Craft of King George entertaining idle bastard
I have g?i?e?
glider, guider and all derivatives, but why? Glider has G for George and anagram of idle but can't see the bastard

glider

GR = George Rex
anag of idle

G ilde R bastard is anagram indicator for IDLE

bastard = anagram indicator

Sorry if I am being thick, that gives me glider, I don't see craft or bastard. Or maybe I am too picky. Anyways, are you saying that the answer is glider?

I took entertaining as being anagram indicator. Two for the price of one? Sorry everybody, glider is of course and aircraft, DOOOOH!

the craft is a glider (definition)

bastard (meaning corrupted) says to anagram IDLE. so you have a bastard form of IDLE inside GR (King George) to give you a G(LIDE)R, a craft.
