System and method of projecting aircraft maintenance costs

摘要

A method of projecting aircraft maintenance costs is disclosed and includes generating a plurality of reliability models associated with a plurality of aircraft mechanical systems. The method also includes performing a plurality of simulations, where each simulation is related to operating one of the plurality of aircraft mechanical systems over a period of time and each simulation based on one of the plurality of reliability models. The method also includes projecting a maintenance cost of each of the plurality of aircraft mechanical systems over the period of time based on each simulation. The method also includes determining a total maintenance cost of the plurality of aircraft mechanical systems over the period of time based on the maintenance cost of each of the plurality of aircraft mechanical systems over the period of time.
