In order to improve a sealing of a gap (20) between control surfaces of an aircraft for enhancing aerodynamics, the invention provides a sealing strip (22) for sealing a gap (20) between convexly curved aerodynamic surface elements (16) of an aircraft (10) such that the sealing strip (22) has a convexly curved outer side (44), the sealing strip (22) having a profile with a mid-seal section (46) and welting sections (48), wherein the welting sections (48) are arranged at end portions of the profile for fixing the sealing strip (22) at the aerodynamic surface elements (16) and protrude on an inner side from the mid-seal section (46), wherein the mid-seal section (46) is arranged between the welting sections (48), wherein at least one stringer-type stiffening structure (58) is provided on the inner side (50) of the mid-seal section (46). Further, a control surface arrangement (14), a wing (12) and an aircraft (10) comprising such a sealing strip (22) as weather seal (24) are described.
