Aircraft health management has been researched at both component and system levels. In instances of certain aircraft faults, like the Boeing 777 fuel icing problem, there is evidence suggesting that a platform approach using an Integrated Vehicle Health Management (IVHM) system could have helped detect faults and their interaction effects earlier, before they became catastrophic. This paper reviews aircraft health management from the aircraft maintenance point of view. It emphasizes the potential of a platform solution to diagnose faults, and their interaction effects, at an early stage. The paper conducts a thorough analysis of existing literature concerning maintenance and its evolution, delves into the application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques in maintenance, explains the rationale behind their employment, and illustrates how AI implementation can enhance fault detection using platform sensor data. Further, it discusses how computational severity and criticality indexes (health indexes) can potentially be complementary to the use of AI for the provision of maintenance information on aircraft components, for assisting operational decisions.
