An airfoil for a compressor blade of a gas turbine engine has a chord between a leading edge and a trailing edge and a span between a root and a tip. The airfoil can further include a reduction in local chord from about 75% span to the tip for about a 5% reduction in local solidity. The airfoil can have decreasing sweep angles for the leading edge and the trailing edge from 50% span to the tip and can have decreasing leading and trailing edge dihedral angles from 50% span to the tip.
