A sealing () for a fairing () against transverse airflow between a wing () and a fuselage () of an aircraft. Inner and outer sides () of the sealing () are provided with lips biased against the fairing () and the wing (). At least two gaskets () are positioned between respective ends of the sides (), thus sealing the fairing () and the wing () against longitudinal airflow.

Sealing of airflow between a wing and a fuselage

An aircraft door arrangement, especially for an airplane, comprising a door; a door frame; a support arm with a pivoting axis on the door side, on which the door is mounted so as to swivel, and a pivoting axis on the frame side, on which the support arm is mounted so as to swivel on the door frame, whereby at least the pivoting axis on the door side is defined by two articulated joints positioned at a distance from each other in the vertical direction of the support arm, of which articulated joints at least one articulated joint has two bearings positioned at a distance from each other in the vertical direction; a pivoting drive that is arranged in the area of the support arm on the door side and that serves to swivel the door; and a driven element that is coupled to the pivoting drive and to the door and that transmits an actuating movement of the pivoting drive to the door. The aircraft door arrangement is characterized in that one of the two bearings of at least one of the articulated joints on the frame side is configured as a pivoting drive mounting to which the pivoting drive is attached.
