An aircraft has a cover, for example an aircraft skin 21, with an outer aerodynamic surface and an aperture 23 with a stop 35 adjacent an edge of the aperture. A moveable device 32, for example a spoiler, may extend through the aperture. The moveable device carries a panel 34 attached to the moveable device by a plurality of leaf springs 36. The assembly is configured so that when the moveable device is moved towards a retracted position the panel bears against the stop or rebate 35 forming a substantially flush surface with the outer aerodynamic surface of the cover surrounding the aperture. The panel is displaced from the moveable device by elastic deformation of at least some of the leaf springs.
