Manufacturing a temperature sensing device for sensing aircraft wheel brake temperature, the method comprising forming a sensor element slot 602 in a sensing device substrate 606; mounting the SAW sensor element in the sensor element slot; and providing the temperature sensing device comprising the sensing device substrate with the SAW sensor element mounted in the sensor element slot. Preferably a sensor antenna is produced on a surface 610 of the sensing device substrate and coupled to the SAW sensor element. The sensor slot element may be cut so as to ensure movement of the SAW sensor element due to vibration/physical shock is inhibited. Preferably the sensor element slot is cut using a laser cutting technique. A temperature sensing device, an aircraft wheel brake comprising the temperature sensing device and an aircraft comprising the aircraft wheel brake are also claimed.
