Abstract

A vane arc segment includes an airfoil piece that defines first and second platforms and a hollow airfoil section that has an internal cavity and extends between the first and second platforms. The first platform defines a gaspath side, a non-gaspath side, and a flange that projects from the non-gaspath side. Support hardware supports the airfoil piece via the flange. There is a conformal thermal insulation blanket disposed on the flange.
