【Abstract】The increasing complexity of modern aircraft systems necessitates advanced monitoring solutions to ensure operational safety and efficiency. Traditional aircraft health monitoring systems (AHMS) often rely on reactive maintenance strategies, detecting only visible faults while leaving underlying issues unaddressed. This gap can lead to critical failures and unplanned downtime, resulting in significant operational costs. To address this issue, this paper proposes the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and blockchain technologies within an enhanced AHMS, utilizing the iceberg model as a conceptual framework to illustrate both visible and hidden defects. The model highlights the importance of detecting and addressing issues at the earliest possible stages, ensuring that hidden defects are identified and mitigated before they evolve into significant failures. The rationale behind this approach lies in the need for a predictive maintenance system capable of identifying and mitigating hidden risks before they escalate. Key tasks completed in this study include: a comparative analysis of the proposed system with existing monitoring solutions, the selection of AI algorithms for fault prediction, and the development of a blockchain-based infrastructure for secure, transparent data sharing. The evolution of AHMS is discussed, emphasizing the shift from traditional monitoring to advanced, predictive, and prescriptive maintenance approaches. This integrated approach demonstrates the potential to significantly improve fault detection, optimize maintenance schedules, and enhance data security across the aviation industry.
