Probably 'air one's wings' ie to spread wings so that they are open to the air
and dry out: you air your clothes. Metaphorically to prepare yourself for some
major event, although I haven't heard of it used this way. An alternative common
use is "I love the air under my wings", meaning you love the freedom of doing
something exhilarating, with hang gliding being a very literal example.
