Zusammenfassung:This invention relates to a gas turbine engine. More particularly this invention is concerned with the design of aerofoils for gas turbine engines and in particular turbine blades or nozzle guide vanes. A turbine blade for a gas turbine engine comprises an aerofoil having a suction and pressure side. The pressure side is provided with a reflex curvature at the aerofoil trailing edge region so as to reduce the thickness of the aerofoil in that region.
