An airfoil for a gas turbine engine defining a radial direction and an axial direction, the airfoil including: a flared portion extending from a suction surface of the airfoil at an outer edge of the airfoil along the radial direction; and a plenum disposed at the outer edge of the airfoil, the plenum having a suction-side sidewall and a pressure-side sidewall, wherein the suction-side sidewall has a first sidewall portion adjacent to a second sidewall portion disposed outside of the first sidewall portion along the radial direction, wherein the first sidewall portion defines a first angle, wherein the second sidewall portion defines a second angle, and wherein the first angle is greater than the second angle.

Fan blades for frangibility are disclosed. An example airfoil for use in a gas turbine engine includes a root portion to be disposed adjacent to a disk of the gas turbine engine, a tip portion including a cavity disposed therein, and wherein the tip portion and cavity are configured to fragment when exposed to a threshold force corresponding to a high-stress event.

An airfoil may include an airfoil body that defines a skin chamber, a skin chamber outlet opening, and a tip flag chamber. In various embodiments, the skin chamber is in fluidic communication with the tip flag chamber via the skin chamber outlet opening. In various embodiments, the airfoil body further defines an outlet hole disposed on at least one of a trailing edge and a pressure side of the airfoil. The tip flag chamber may be in fluidic communication with the outlet hole (e.g., cooling circuit air in the tip flag chamber may exit the airfoil via the outlet hole). In various embodiments, the tip flag chamber extends parallel and directly adjacent to the outermost tip of the airfoil.
