Aerodynamic structures and methods of forming aerodynamic structures are disclosed herein. The aerodynamic structures include a first skin region that includes a first skin edge and a second skin region that includes a second skin edge. The first skin region and the second skin region are angled relative to one another and define a gap between the first skin edge and the second skin edge. The aerodynamic structures also include a trailing edge structure that extends within the gap and between the first skin edge and the second skin edge. The aerodynamic structures further include a plurality of blind fasteners. A first subset of the plurality of blind fasteners operatively interconnects the first skin region and the trailing edge structure. A second subset of the plurality of blind fasteners operatively interconnects the second skin region and the trailing edge structure. The methods include methods of forming the aerodynamic structures.
