A fan blade includes an airfoil with a leading edge and a trailing edge in a chordwise direction, a root and a tip in a spanwise direction; and a sheath (52) with a solid portion (68) to cover the leading edge (56) and first and second flanks (70,70) extending in the chordwise direction to bond to the pressure and suction sides of the airfoil, respectively. The dimensions of the sheath are varied with respect to the spanwise direction of the blade.
