Zusammenfassung:	An actuation assembly for a variable pitch fan for a gas turbine engine is provided. The actuation assembly generally includes a plurality of fan blades, a scheduling ring, and a plurality of linkage arms. The plurality of fan blades are rotatably coupled to a disk and extend radially therefrom. The scheduling ring is rotatable relative to the disk and has a plurality of slots. Each of the plurality of linkage arms are operatively coupled to one of the plurality of fan blades and to one of the plurality of slots. Each of the plurality of fan blades rotate according to a blade pitch schedule defined by the slot to which it is operatively coupled, and at least two of the plurality of slots define different blade pitch schedules.
