Abstract:
An airfoil of a turbine engine includes pressure and suction sides and extends in a radial direction from a 0% span position to a 100% span position. The airfoil has a relationship between a leading edge angle and span position that defines a curve with a leading edge angle of less than 40° at 100% span.
