An airfoil includes a body. The body includes leading and trailing edges adjoining pressure and suction sides to provide an exterior airfoil surface. First and second cooling passages extend in a radial direction from a root to a tip. The first cooling passage includes a tip flag passage that is radially inboard from the tip and extends in a chord-wise direction to a first end that penetrates the trailing edge. The second cooling passage includes a second end terminates adjacent the tip flag passage and a dirt purge passage interconnects the second end to the tip flag passage. A core for making the airfoil is also disclosed.
