Abstract
A method of tracking an engine cooler in an aircraft includes recording an orientation of the engine cooler as orientation N. Prognostic health management data of the aircraft is tracked. A maintenance check of the aircraft is performed based on the tracked prognostic health management data. Whether to rotate an orientation of the engine cooler is determined with an aircraft maintenance database based on the tracked prognostic health management data of the aircraft. A recommendation is provided by the aircraft maintenance database as to whether to rotate the engine cooler. The orientation of the engine cooler is recorded as orientation N+1.
