Abstract
A fan section for a gas turbine engine includes a fan hub having blade slots for receiving a root of a fan blade. A lock ring is configured to move rotatably from an unlocked position to a locked position for securing the blade root in the blade slot. A nose cone is secured to the lock ring, and thereby secured to the fan section.
