Abstract
Variable angular compression seal assemblies are disclosed that may usefully be employed to seal movable aircraft components, e.g., so as to seal a flap torque tube operating in a flap track cutout opening in a wing to fuselage fairing. The seal assembly may be provided so as to seal a component moveable between first and second positions within a cutout opening. The seal assembly includes a split seal having opposed seal members in non-compressive contact with one another along a split line between opposed ends of the seal members so as to allow the component to be moved along the split line between the first and second positions thereof. The seal members include opposed wall portions at one end thereof defining a recess for receiving the moveable component when in the first position thereof. The split line between the opposed seal members can be variably curved.
