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 wetting sections (48) at both longitudinal edges of the sealing strip (22) for fixing the sealing strip (22) at the aerodynamic surface elements (16) and a mid-seal section (46) between the wetting sections (48), wherein the wetting sections (48) protrude on an inner side from the mid-seal section (46), wherein the sealing strip (22) has a first length region (102), a second length region (104) and a third length region (106, the second length region (104) being located longitudinally of the sealing strip (22) between the first and third length regions (102, 106), wherein the wetting sections (48) are omitted in the second length region (104) or wherein the wetting sections (48) in the second length region are less rigid than the wetting sections (48) in the first and third length regions (102, 106). 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.
