באויר. בחצר או בגינה שאין שם אוהל, ודינה כדין כוורת שהיא לתוך הפתח ופיה לחוץ כדתנן בריש פרקין. וכן נמי גבוהה טפח דהכא כגבוהה טפח דריש פרקין, אלא דכאן אין שייך להזכיר בית, דבעומדת תחת האויר עסקינן:

אהלות פרק ט׳ משנה י"ב
Bartenura
בזמן שהיא כלי – where it stands in the airspace it doesn’t belong to mention that which is loosely put in/hollow, and because of this, it does not teach here, “or it was made narrower by squeezing the parts together,” as is taught above (see Mishnah 3), for the issue of making it narrower by squeezing the parts together (i.e., pressing the lid down) only applies with something that is put in loosely.
או מחזקת ארבעים סאה כדברי חכמים – which is in conflict with the first Tanna/teacher as he holds that it holds forty Se’ah. When it is damaged, it is voided from the status of being like a vessel, but it protects what is underneath it and within it and above it.
כזית מן המת נתון תחתיה – its law is like it is damaged and it is not [a handbreadth] high and its mouth is towards the outside, as it is taught in the Mishnah (see Mishnah 3) above.
היתה גבוהה מן הארץ טפח – these also, its law is like that of a hive whose mouth is towards the outside and it is damaged and stuffed up [with straw] and above [the ground] a handbreadth as it is taught in the Mishnah (see Mishnah 5) above.
בזמן שהיא כלי. היכא דעומדת באויר אין שייך להזכיר מחולחלת, ומשום הכי לא תנא הכא או אפוצה כדתני לעיל, דאין שייך אפוצה אלא במחולחלת:
או מחזקת ארבעים סאה כדברי חכמים. דפליגי אתנא קמא וסברי דמחזקת ארבעים סאה. כנפחתה ונתבטלה מתורת כלי דמיא, ומצלת אתחתיה ואתוכה ועל גבה:
כזית מן המת נתון תחתיה. דינה כנפחתה ואינה גבוהה ופיה לחוץ דתנן לעיל:
היתה גבוהה מן הארץ טפח. הך נמי דינה כדין כוורת שפיה לחוץ ופחותה ופקוקה וגבוהה טפח דתנן לעיל:

In 1934, the Kozoglover Gaon, Rav Aryeh Tzvi Frommer, who took over from Rav Meir Shapiro (the founder of Daf Yomi) as the head of Yeshivas Chachmei Lublin, initiated the Mishnah Yomi cycle, focusing on Seder Zeraim and Seder Taharos. After World War II, in 1947, Rav Yonah Sztencl, a disciple of Rav Frommer, expanded the program, advocating for a comprehensive study of Shishah Sidrei Mishnah. The idea of studying two Mishnayos daily gained the support of figures like Rav Isser Zalman Meltzer, the Tchebiner Rov, and the Gerer Rebbe, marking the formal inception of Mishnah Yomi.

באויר – in the courtyard or in the garden, where there isn’t a tent there. And its law is like of the hive that is in the midst of the doorway and its mouth is outside, as it is taught in the Mishnah at the beginning of the chapter (see Mishnah 1). And similarly, also if it is above the ground by a handbreadth, like it is above the ground a handbreadth of here at the beginning of the chapter (see Mishnah 2). But that of here, it doesn’t belong to mention a house, for we are dealing with a case where one is standing underneath the airspace.
