Abstract
An aerodynamic component of a gas turbine engine is provided and is fittable to a shell having a shell shape. The aerodynamic component includes a body having a component shape initially deviating from the shell shape prior to an assembly operation in which the aerodynamic component is to be fit to the shell. Deviation of the component shape from the shell shape aids in an establishment of a final desired shape of the aerodynamic component following the assembly operation.
