Zusammenfassung:Assemblies for air vehicle control surfaces and related methods are disclosed. An example apparatus includes a control surface; a bullnose carried by the control surface, the bullnose moveable relative to the control surface; a first actuator operatively coupled to the control surface to cause the control surface to rotate; and a second actuator operatively coupled to the control surface, the second actuator to cause the bullnose to move from a first position to a second position to cause an opening to be formed relative to the control surface, the movement of the bullnose independent of rotation of the control surface.
