Underwing-mounted trailing edge flaps for wings of aircraft are disclosed. A flap pivotally coupled to the wing is movable between a stowed position located along a lower surface of the wing and a deployed position located rearward of a trailing edge of the wing. The flap includes a first edge, a second edge located opposite the first edge, a first surface extending between the first edge and the second edge, and a second surface located opposite the first surface and extending between the first edge and the second edge. The first edge is located rearward of the second edge when the flap is in the stowed position, and forward of the second edge when the flap is in the deployed position. A bullnose pivotally coupled to the flap at a location along the first edge pivots relative to the flap as the flap moves between the stowed and deployed positions.
