An aircraft assembly including a wing component and an engine mounting pylon component. The wing component has three fastening locations arranged in a triangle and a plane. The engine mounting pylon component is connected to the wing component by three tension fasteners, wherein each of the tension fasteners passes through a different one of the fastening locations. The wing component comprises three first spherical surfaces positioned such that the center of each first spherical surface is at a different one of the fastening locations. The engine mounting pylon component comprises three second spherical surfaces having equal and opposite curvature to the first spherical surfaces. Each of the second spherical surfaces is in contact with a different one of the first spherical surfaces.
