Abstract

A fan rotor blade includes a blade body made from a composite material of a resin and fibers, and having a pressure surface facing one side in a rotation direction and a suction surface facing the other side in the rotation direction. The blade body is provided with a sheath which is more rigid than the blade body and is fixed to the blade body in a state where the sheath covers a leading edge portion of the blade body, which is located on an upstream side in the direction of intake of external air, and the vicinity thereof. A tip end portion of the sheath extends from the leading edge portion side of the blade body to a trailing edge portion side of the blade body. An end portion of the tip end portion of the sheath is flush with the trailing edge portion of the blade body.
