Abstract

A blade and method for producing the blade for a gas turbine engine are described herein. The blade may include a composite airfoil. The airfoil may comprise a ceramic material, and a distal end. A tip may extend from the distal end of the airfoil. The tip of the airfoil may comprise a substantially porous structure and may comprise infiltrated material extending from an airfoil preform to a tip preform to join the airfoil preform and the tip preform.
