Described herein is an apparatus comprising an aircraft wing and a trailing edge aerodynamic surface connected to a trailing edge of the aircraft wing via a piston assembly in which the piston assembly holds the trailing edge aerodynamic surface in a neutral position relative to the aircraft wing at a constant supply pressure. The piston assembly may be implemented using a pneumatic piston or a hydraulic piston. A first end of the piston assembly may be connected to the aircraft wing and a second end of the piston assembly may be connected to the trailing edge aerodynamic surface. The piston assembly may include a pressure relief valve which may open or close, raising or lowering the aerodynamic surface, responsive to lift load on the aircraft wing.
