A sealing arrangement is provided between inner and outer coaxial ring-shaped walls of an aircraft engine. The outer wall has an axial end with a U-shaped cross-section parallel to axis, the opening therein being oriented axially in a first direction. The inner wall has an axial end with a U-shaped cross-section parallel to axis, the opening therein being oriented axially in the opposite direction. The U-shaped end of the outer wall includes a ring-shaped free edge axially engaged in the opening in the axial end of the inner wall. The U-shaped end of the inner wall includes a ring-shaped free edge axially engaged in the opening in the axial end of the outer wall. The walls define therebetween a ring-shaped gas channel having a substantially S-shaped axial cross-section.
