Abstract: A wastewater tank arrangement for an aircraft, including a wastewater tank and a drain pipe having a first end and an opposite second end, the drain pipe fastened with its first end to the wastewater tank and having a second end for connection to a service panel in the aircraft structure. Providing a wastewater tank arrangement can effectively compensate tolerances between the wastewater tank and the service panel, and can effectively compensate installation and manufacturing tolerances during the course of the initial installation, in that the wastewater tank arrangement has a tolerance compensation device configured to connect the second end of the drain pipe to the service panel and compensate tolerances between the second end of the drain pipe and the service panel.

Abstract: A gas distribution system for aircrafts includes a corrugated hose having a first connecting end and a second connecting end, and a shroud surrounding the corrugated hose concentrically along a longitudinal direction of the corrugated hose, thereby building an intermediate space between the corrugated hose and the shroud. The first connecting end is configured to be connected to a gas tank. The second connecting end is configured to be connected to a gas consumer. The corrugated hose is flexible so as to compensate for in-flight deflections of the gas distribution system. Also, an aircraft including a fuselage, a Hydrogen consumer, a Hydrogen tank, and the gas distribution system is provided. The gas distribution system fluidly connects the Hydrogen tank with the Hydrogen consumer.
