摘要

A seal (5) suitable for sealing a door (3) to an aircraft fuselage (1) and which also acts as a rain channel when the door (3) is open. In one embodiment the seal (5) is of unitary construction and made from high tear strength silicone rubber. It comprises a flange region (7) for attachment to the fuselage (1) and a hollow compressible bulb (8) which connects the flange (7) with a pair of sealing lips (9, 10). The invention has the advantage of providing an effective seal for doors having uneven inner surfaces.
