Abstract
A vane assembly includes a rotatable airfoil that extends between a radially inner platform and a radially outer platform and has a leading edge and a trailing edge. A thrust projection is fixed relative to the rotatable airfoil. The thrust projection includes a first thrust surface for supporting radial loads in a first radial direction and a second thrust surface for supporting radial loads in a second direction.
