An improved blade mounting arrangement for a gas turbine engine with a turbine and an annular flowpath therethrough is disclosed. The improvement comprises a one-piece outer casing and a one-piece inner casing bounding the flowpath. The outer casing has a plurality of circumferential recesses disposed therein with each of the recesses having first and second axially opposite circumferential slots. A plurality of first turbine blades, each with axially facing tangs on a mounting platform, mate with the slots in the outer casing recess. The inner casing has a plurality of recesses disposed therein, each of the recesses including a forward circumferential slot and concentric aft radially outer and radially inner circumferential slots. A plurality of second turbine blades, each with forward and aft axially facing tangs on a mounting platform, mate with respective ones of forward slot and radially outer slot in the inner casing recess. |
