An aircraft wing trailing edge section assembly 103 comprises upper and lower skin structures 118, 119 and a movement mechanism 150 comprising first and second portions 151, 152 respectively attached to internal surfaces of the upper and lower skin structures. The movement mechanism comprises a connector member 153 rotationally mounted between the first and second portions, such that rotation of the connector causes simultaneous movement of both first and second portions and upper and lower skin structures, changing the trailing edge camber. The connector may pivotally connect to the first and second portions and may extend along a span of the wing. Actuation of the connector may cause the first and second portions to move in opposite directions. A slide connection mechanism 180 on the trailing edge comprising a slide channel 181 may permit the skin structures to slide past each other but constrain movement in a perpendicular direction.
