Abstract
The present invention relates to a ducting for a fluid transfer pipeline for an aircraft or spacecraft, an aeronautical structure incorporating it and a method for producing this ducting.The ducting (1) comprises a pipe (2) with a thermoplastic or thermoplastic elastomeric layer (4) and a reinforcing layer (5) surmounting it. The pipe has a curved and/or bent geometry and the reinforcing layer is made of a composite material based on reinforcing means (6) that are in intimate and direct contact with the subjacent layer, such as the inner layer, said geometry being obtained by one or other of the following two methods (a) and (b):
