A sealing tool 42 for sealing a stringer-receiving opening in an aircraft rib. The sealing tool includes a seal member 50 arranged to seal a gap 28 formed by the opening between the stringer 21 and the rib 26. An intermediate member 60 is configured to be adjustably mounted on the rib. The adjustable member receives and aligns the seal member over the gap. An alignment member 80 may be included between the sealing member and the intermediate member. The members may be attached to the rib using mounting holes 29 located in the rib and guide members 71, acting to locate the intermediate member and form a fixing using fixing members 91. There is further disclosed a method of sealing a stringer-receiving opening in a rib comprising aligning the intermediate member with the opening, fixing the intermediate member to the rib, using the intermediate member to align a seal member, and fixing the seal member over the opening.
