Aircraft wing assemblies are disclosed herein. An example apparatus disclosed herein includes a trailing edge of a wing of an aircraft. The trailing edge has an elastically deformable skin defining a first surface. The trailing edge has a first end to be fixed to the wing and a second end opposite the first end that is to move relative to the first end. A flap is movably coupled to the second end of the trailing edge. The flap is movable between a stowed position and a deployed position. The trailing edge is to elastically elongate when the flap moves from the stowed position to the deployed position and the trailing edge is to elastically collapse when the flap moves from the deployed position to the stowed position.
