An assembly of airfoils in a turbine engine, the assembly comprising: at least three successive axially stacked rows of airfoils in one of a compressor and a turbine: a first airfoil row, a second airfoil row, and a third airfoil row; wherein the first airfoil row and the third airfoil row each comprise one of a row of rotor blades and a row of stator blades, and the second airfoil row comprises the other; and wherein at least a majority of the mid-channel points of the airfoils in the third airfoil row are positioned circumferentially within +/−25% pitch of the third airfoil row with respect to the location at which a wake flow during a selected operating condition from the first airfoil row is determined to enter the third airfoil row.
