Distributed trailing edge wing flap systems are described. An example wing flap system for an aircraft includes a flap and first and second actuators. The flap is movable between a deployed position and a retracted position relative to a fixed trailing edge of a wing of the aircraft. The first and second actuators are configured to move the flap relative to the fixed trailing edge. The first actuator is actuatable via pressurized hydraulic fluid to be supplied from a hydraulic system of the aircraft to the first actuator via a hydraulic module operatively coupled to the first actuator. The first actuator is operatively coupled to a first shaft. The second actuator is actuatable via an electric motor of the second actuator. The electric motor is operatively coupled to an electrical system of the aircraft. The second actuator is operatively coupled to a second shaft. The first and second shafts are selectively operatively couplable via a clutch operatively positioned between the first and second shafts. The clutch is actuatable between a disengaged position in which the second shaft is operatively uncoupled from the first shaft and an engaged position in which the second shaft is operatively coupled to the first shaft.
