Patent abstract
A gas turbine engine include a combustor section arranged between a compressor section and a turbine section. A fan section has multiple fan blades. A geared architecture couples the fan section to the turbine section or compressor section. The fan blades include an airfoil that has pressure and suction sides. The airfoil extends in a radial direction from a 0% span position at an inner flow path location to a 100% span position at an airfoil tip. The airfoil has a relationship between a trailing edge dihedral and a span position. The trailing edge dihedral positive from the 0% span position to the 100% span position. A positive dihedral corresponds to suction side-leaning and a negative dihedral corresponds to pressure side-leaning.
