Abstract

The invention relates to a guide vane segment for an aircraft engine, having at least one guide vane element, having at least one flange formed in a radial extension direction (R) of the guide vane element and at least one positioning member projecting from the flange in the radial extension direction (R), and at least one seal carrier, which is arranged at the flange and is aligned relative to the guide vane element by way of the positioning member, wherein the flange has a supporting surface on which the seal carrier is supported, wherein a partial surface of the positioning member is adjacent to the flange at a transition from the flange to the positioning member, and respective surface normal lines of the supporting surface and of the partial surface enclose between them an angle (α) that is different from a zero angle.
