Disclosed is a method and a system for autonomously tracking distress events on an aircraft in real-time while in flight. The method involves maintaining a multi-logic classifier configured for identifying distress events, receiving aircraft state data from at least one MAU (main avionics unit), transforming the aircraft state data using the multi-logic classifier to produce transformed state data, producing a trigger event if the transformed state data indicates a distress event, and generating an alert of the trigger event. In accordance with an embodiment of the disclosure, the multi-valued logic classifier is configured for identifying distress events using more than two possible truth values, for example by implementing a fuzzy logic algorithm or an artificial neural network. This is an improvement over conventional methods in which fixed thresholds are used to determine a Boolean true/false value to represent if an aircraft is in distress.
