A baffle seal for a thrust reverser of a gas turbine engine includes a seal body of a resilient material. The seal body has a relatively flat central portion with opposed front and back sides. A raised sealing rim extends at least partially around the central portion. An outer periphery of the sealing rim extends beyond an outer periphery of the central portion so as to define an exposed sealing surface.

What is claimed is: 1. A transcowl assembly for a gas turbine engine thrust reverser, comprising:(a) a first longitudinally-extending structural beam having a first side face;(b) an arcuate transcowl segment having a first end disposed adjacent the first side face, the transcowl segment moveable forward and aft along the structure beam between stowed and deployed positions, and including:(i) an outer panel;(ii) an inner panel; and(iii) an arcuate cross-section baffle disposed between the inner and outer panels; and(d) a resilient first baffle seal carried by the structural beam, the first baffle seal arranged to engage in sealing contact with an interior surface of the baffle so as to resist leakage of air between the baffle and the first structural beam.
