An aircraft wing coupling arrangement couples services to and/or from a
wing component which is translationally extendible from the wing of an
aircraft. A housing is provided for mounting on the wing and includes a
first coupling member. A hollow telescopic assembly extends from the
housing for connection at a distal end to the wing component and has a
second coupling member at the distal end. The telescopic assembly is
extendible between a retracted and an extended position. A service
carrying conduit arrangement carries the services to and/or from the wing
component and extends through the hollow telescopic assembly from the
second coupling member to the first coupling member. The service carrying
conduit arrangement is flexible to locate excess thereof in the housing
when the hollow telescopic assembly is in the retracted position.
