A gas turbine engine includes a core 16 and a tie shaft 86. The tie shaft 86 is rotatable about an axial direction (A) of the gas turbine engine by the core 16 of the gas turbine engine. The gas turbine engine additionally includes a modular fan (38) having a plurality of fan blades 40 and a frame 102. The plurality fan blades 40 are attached to the frame 102 and the frame 102 is slidably received on the tie shaft 86 of the gas turbine engine. The modular fan 38 additionally includes an attachment member 114 removably attaching the frame 102 to the tie shaft 86 of the gas turbine engine to removably install the modular fan 38 in the gas turbine engine.
