Concorde stage 5 turbine stator. This blade is from the turbine (hot exhaust) side of an engine from the decommissioned Concorde supersonic passenger jet. Specifically it is the HPCST5 (fifth-stage stator) blade, meaning it is a blade that is fixed to the housing of the engine, not rotating with the core. It is made of Nimonic alloy, probably Nimonic-90, one of a family of nickel-chromium super-alloys with the composition: Ni 54% min Cr 18-21% Co 15-21% Ti 2-3% Al 1-2% Be sure to click the Source link below to see a whole series of lovely Concorde turbine and compressor blades in several different alloys.
