According to the present invention, a hollow airfoil is provided that comprises a leading edge wall portion, a plurality of cavities, one or more crossover ribs, a plurality of cooling apertures, and a plurality of impingement ribs. The cavities are disposed adjacent the leading edge wall portion, between the leading edge wall portion and a first rib. The crossover ribs extend between the leading edge wall portion and the first rib, and at least one crossover rib is disposed between a pair of the cavities. The cooling apertures are disposed in the leading edge wall portion, providing a passage through which cooling air can exit the cavities. The impingement apertures are disposed in the first rib, providing a passage through which cooling air can enter the cavities. At least one of the impingement apertures is contiguous with one of the crossover ribs.
