ABSTRACT:
A compressor blade (26) comprises an aerofoil (36) and a root (38). The aerofoil (36) comprises a concave wall (40) extending from a leading edge (44) to a trailing edge (46) and a convex wall (42) extending from the leading edge (44) to the trailing edge (46). The aerofoil (36) defines at least one internal chamber (48). The root (38) is connected to the aerofoil (36) and the root (38) has a base (50) remote from the aerofoil (38) and at least one aperture (52) extends from the base (50) to the at least one internal chamber (48) in the aerofoil (36). The dimensions, shape and position of the least one aperture (52) are selected such that the root (38) is deformable. This reduces the weight of the containment region of a fan casing (28).
