A method including identifying a plurality of maintenance schedules for a plurality of aircraft of a fleet of aircrafts each of which satisfy a minimum maintenance free operating period, monitoring and measuring a health of each of the aircrafts, utilizing the measured heath of the aircrafts within a degradation model in order to produce a plurality possible maintenance events for each of the aircrafts, each of the possible maintenance events associated with a different maintenance time, identifying at least one maintenance event for each aircraft in the fleet of aircraft using the set of possible maintenance events found for each aircraft from the plurality of maintenance schedules resulting in number of aircraft down for maintenance below a predetermined threshold, and executing the at least one maintenance event based on the at least one identified maintenance event.
