A complex-shaped, three-dimensional fiber reinforced composite airfoil may be formed by using counteracting pressures applied to a structural lay-up of wetted fibers placed onto pressurizable members to form continuous fore and aft loops. In turn, the loops may be structurally functional to transfer loads from an edge of the airfoil to a center section of the airfoil. The airfoil may include may include fillers and/or a metallic insert, wherein the metallic insert may provide a lightening strike capability. |
