ABSTRACT:
An aerofoil, particularly a nozzle guide vane, for a gas turbine engine comprises a hollow interior with an air guide tube located therein. The air guide tube has apertures therein, and in order to cause the free edges of the apertures to seal against internal ribs of the aerofoil, springs are provided to force the open edges apart. Conveniently the springs comprise straps between the apertures which are formed with a corrugated shape.
