The "beast from the air" is the dead body of a pilot, suspended from a parachute, which descends from the air and lands on top of the mountain. This body and it's "flapping" parachute are mistakenly identified in the dark as a"winged beast" by the twins Sam n Eric, who are called Samneric by the other boys.

Chapter 6 of "Lord of the Flies" is titled "Beast from Air" because this is when the boys mistake a dead parachutist for a beast coming down from the sky. This event heightens their fears and symbolizes the increasing presence of savagery on the island.
