Abstract
A fan assembly for use in a gas turbine engine includes a fan wheel and a plurality of blades extending radially from the fan wheel away from a central axis of the fan assembly. Each of the blades includes a root coupled with the fan wheel and an airfoil extending radially outwardly from the root. The blades are adapted to rotate about the central axis to push air.
