A device for a spaced apart connection of a structural element, in particular made from a fiber-reinforced plastic composite material, with a holding element by means of a connection screw, with a distance compensation element comprising a longitudinal bore for the passage of the connection screw, and with an entraining element arranged in the longitudinal bore, which entraining element can be connected to the connection screw by means of a friction fit, so that the distance compensation element can be transferred into an abutment position bridging the distance between the structural element and the holding element by screwing in of the connection screw, wherein the distance compensation element is connected to an insertion part via a screw connection, which insertion part comprises a fastening section that can be arranged within the structural element for bonding with the structural element.

A table () for an aircraft includes a table surface () deployable between a retracted position and a deployed position, an arm () having a first end and a second end, the arm () supporting the table () surface at the first end, a support connected to the arm () at the second end, the support connecting the arm to a structure interior to the aircraft, a sensor () within the aircraft to detect if a seat adjacent to the table surface is occupied, and a mechanism () for retracting the table surface to the retracted position if the sensor () detects at least one of that the seat is not occupied and that the aircraft flight mode meets predetermined criteria.
