Abstract
A stator assembly of a gas turbine engine according to an example of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a first shroud extending about an assembly axis to bound a flow path. The first shroud defines a first shroud opening. An airfoil has an airfoil body extending from a first end portion. The first end portion is received in the first shroud opening and defines a pair of airfoil openings. A retention clip has an intermediate portion connecting a first leg portion and a second leg portion. The intermediate portion is compressible to position the first and second leg portions in the pair of airfoil openings such that the retention clip limits movement of the airfoil relative to the first shroud.
