The implementation of condition-based maintenance continues to face several challenges especially in the aeronautics field. While it is true that time-based maintenance dominates the industry today, it is believed that condition monitoring could yield promising results with a better compromise on cost over effectiveness in the long run. The aim of condition-based monitoring in aeronautics is, based on the available system data (e.g., flight, event and maintenance data), to evaluate the current health state of an aircraft component and to estimate its remaining useful life. Several approaches have been studied in condition-based maintenance with the most promising being data-driven modeling. This paper proposes a comparison of a set of data-driven modeling techniques to perform prognostics on a critical component of the jet engine bleed system. The novelty of our work is twofold. First, we perform this comparative study on a real case study of a critical valve of the aircraft bleed system. Fielded data from different data sources are used in the models. To our knowledge, this is the first case study that merges data from the computer central maintenance system (fault messages), maintenance data, and flight data on a prognostics system. Second, a variety of data-driven techniques are compared from neural nets to regression support machines. The models are compared using the standard metrics of absolute, mean, and squared errors. A regressive accuracy curve is also used to compare the models along different prediction window sizes. The results show the best model comprised information from all data sources. The data that most contributed to the performance improvement was the maintenance, flight and fault data, in this order. This result comes to reinforce the notion that it is more difficult to extract quantitative information from fault events than flight data with data-driven regressive methods.
