Abstract

An assembly is provided for a turbine engine. This turbine engine assembly includes a case structure and an air conduit. The case structure extends circumferentially about and axially along an axis. The air conduit has a conduit centerline, a conduit first end and a conduit second end. The air conduit extends longitudinally along the conduit centerline between the conduit first end and the conduit second end. The conduit first end is connected to the case structure at a first location. The conduit second end is connected to the case structure at a second location. The air conduit is displaced from the case structure longitudinally between the conduit first end and the conduit second end. At least a majority of the conduit centerline follows a non-straight trajectory.
