Abstract
A method and apparatus for maintaining an aircraft. Real-time event information indicating faults in systems on the aircraft and aircraft condition monitoring system data indicating conditions of the systems on the aircraft are stored during a plurality of legs of flights of the aircraft. A feature table comprising the real-time event information and the aircraft condition monitoring system data is built. Feature vectors are extracted from the feature table. A machine learning algorithm is applied to the extracted feature vectors to generate a predicted maintenance event message that identifies a predicted maintenance event. The predicted maintenance event message is used to perform a maintenance operation on the aircraft.
