    Abstract: An aircraft defining a longitudinal centerline and extending between a forward end and an aft end is provided. The aircraft comprises a fuselage extending between the forward end of the aircraft and the aft end of the aircraft; a wing assembly extending laterally outwardly with respect to the longitudinal centerline from a portion of the fuselage; an unducted turbofan engine including an unducted fan that defines a plurality of fan wakes; and a pylon fairing that connects the unducted turbofan engine to the wing assembly, the pylon fairing defining a pylon fairing dihedral, wherein the pylon fairing dihedral is in a direction opposite the incoming fan flow swirl and associated sheared profiles of fan wakes upon arrival at the pylon leading edge.

    Abstract: An airfoil assembly for a gas turbine engine includes: an inner support structure configured to circumscribe a longitudinal axis of the gas turbine engine; an outer support structure configured to circumscribe the longitudinal axis of the gas turbine engine, the outer support structure circumscribing the inner support structure; and a stage including a plurality of airfoils extending from the inner support structure towards the outer support structure, the plurality of airfoils including: a first airfoil defining a first sweep angle, a first axial position, and a first lean angle; and a second airfoil defining a second sweep angle, a second axial position, and a second lean angle, wherein the second sweep angle is different than the first sweep angle, the second axial position is different than the first axial position, the second lean angle is different than the first lean angle, or a combination thereof.
