Abstract
A wear liner for a stator vane includes a shaped member, comprising a U-shaped portion that receives a foot of a stator vane. A first end of the wear liner is biased into contact with the stator vane. A spring seal extends from the U-shaped portion and into bias contact with an inner surface of the support structure to further prevent leakage between the stator foot and case support structure.
