July 10, 2013
A stator subassembly (121) includes an array of circumferentially arranged stator vanes (29). An attachment liner (100, 102) secures the stator vanes (29) to one another to provide the subassembly (121). A damper spring (104, 106) is integral with the attachment liner (100, 102) and is provided between the array (29) and an outer case (28), which supports the array (29). The damper spring (104, 106) is configured to bias the array (29) radially inwardly from the outer case (28).
