An aircraft sensor system includes an aircraft sensor module provided in an aircraft. The sensor module is an outdoor temperature sensor module configured to measure outdoor temperature of the aircraft. The sensor module includes an energy harvesting element configured to generate power from vibration generated by the aircraft; a power storage unit configured to store power generated by the energy harvesting element; a sensor configured to operate by the power from at least one of the energy harvesting element and the power storage unit; and a wireless communication unit configured to operate by at least one of the power from the energy harvesting element and the power from the power storage unit, and transmit measurement data measured by the sensor to an external device via wireless communication. The sensor module is provided to a wing tip end portion that is a free end of a wing body of the aircraft.
