The fan includes a first plurality of fan blades supported on a first fan support and a second plurality of fan blades supported on a second fan support. The first and second fan supports are rotatable about a fan axis independently of each other. A geared architecture includes at least one gear driven by the turbine section for rotating about a gear axis that is transverse to the fan axis. The gear drives the fan supports for rotating the respective pluralities of fan blades in opposite directions.
