The spooling apparatus includes a base for receiving services to be provided to the remote ground vehicle through the elongate carrier, and a turntable mounted on the base and arranged to rotate with respect to the base. A spooling drum which houses the elongate carrier is mounted on the turntable and is free to rotate so that as the vehicle moves within the maintenance facility the elongate carrier remains oriented towards the remote ground vehicle.
