A fan blade (134) includes a working region (148) having a leading edge (138) and a pressure side (136). A plurality of flow modification features (150-1 to 150-4) are positioned at the working region, including first and second flow modification features (150-1, 150-2, 150-3) each having a wedge shape with a pointed end (152) and a wider end (154), and located on the pressure side. A length of the first flow modification feature is less than a chord length of the fan blade, and the pointed end of the first flow modification feature is spaced from the leading edge. A length of the second flow modification feature is less than the chord length of the fan blade, and the pointed end of the second flow modification feature is spaced from the leading edge. The first and second flow modification features are spaced from each other to define a channel (156) therebetween.
