A device for servicing an aircraft on the ground includes: a steerable carriage; a first reel mounted along a first lateral side of the steerable carriage for unwinding a first hose or a cable onto a ground surface, wherein the first hose or a cable has a drop off point near this first lateral side; and a second reel mounted along a second lateral side of the steerable carriage for unwinding a second hose or a cable onto the ground surface, wherein the second hose or a cable has a drop off point near this second lateral side. A control system controls the unwinding speed of the cable or hose from of each of the reels in such a way that in a curve, the control system makes the outer reel unwind faster than the inner reel.
