An air seal assembly for an aircraft control surface comprises a bulb-type air seal, a mounting bracket and a fastener. The bulb-type air seal has a hollow bulb portion, a T-shaped mounting extension, and a first through hole extending through the T-shaped mounting extension. The mounting bracket has a T-shaped channel configured to slidingly receive the T-shaped mounting extension of the air seal and a second through hole. The fastener has a head at one end and an opposite exposed end sized for extending through the first through hole in the T-shaped mounting extension and through the second through hole in the mounting bracket. The exposed end is accessible to tighten the fastener against the bracket to keep the air seal in place within the T-shaped channel.
