A blade for an open rotor includes a pressure side and a suction side, the pressure side and the suction side intersecting at a leading edge and a trailing edge, wherein for at least 30% of a span of the blade, the meanline of the airfoil section is shaped such that a relative curvature parameter is greater than 1.2 in a first region, less than 0.75 in a second region, and greater than 0.9 in a third region, wherein the relative curvature parameter of a region is defined by Δζn/Δζtot/Δ(x/c)n wherein ζ corresponds to the inverse tangent of the slope of a meanline curve, subscript n indicates the region, and x/c is a chordwise location normalized by the chord and wherein the first region comprises at least x/c=0.0 to 0.15 and the third region comprises at least x/c=0.80 to 1.0.
