A method for fabricating an outlet guide vane (70) includes the steps of fabricating a structural spar (72) from a first material, fabricating a fairing (74) from a second material, and installing the fairing (74) onto the spar (72) so as to at least partially surround the spar (72) and form an airfoil (102). An outlet guide vane (70) includes an airfoil (102) including a leading edge (114) and a trailing edge (116), a structural spar (72) formed from a first material located within the airfoil (102), and a fairing (74) formed from a second material at least partially surrounding the spar (72). A gas turbine engine assembly (10) includes a core gas turbine engine (13), a fan assembly (12) including a plurality of fan blades (24) coupled to the core gas turbine engine (13), and a plurality of outlet guide vanes (70) coupled downstream from the fan blades (24), at least one of the outlet guide vanes (70) including an airfoil (102) having a leading edge (114) and a trailing edge (116), a structural spar (72) formed from a first material located within the airfoil (102), and a fairing (74) formed from a second material at least partially surrounding the spar (72).
