Abstract
An assembly for a gas turbine engine includes a component and a finger seal. The component has a first surface and a second surface. The first surface has an elevation that differs from an elevation of the second surface. The finger seal is connected to the first surface and extends above the second surface. The disposition of the second surface relative to the finger seal creates a cavity below a curved portion of the finger seal.
