1. A method of tracking product reliability, comprising:

  • periodically accessing, at a user-selected periodicity, removal data stored in a product removal database, the removal data associated with a product;

    periodically accessing, at the user-selected periodicity, product where-used data stored in a where-used database, the product where-used data associated with at least selected ones of the products for which removal data are stored in the product removal database and representative of where the at least selected ones of the products are used;

    periodically accessing, at the user-selected periodicity, time-in-service data stored in an aircraft flight-hours database, the time-in-service data associated with each product for which where-used data are stored in the product where-used database;

    executing one or more user-selected algorithms, using at least a portion of the periodically accessed removal data, to determine if a criterion for a user-specified reliability parameter is not met; and

    transmitting an alert to a preset destination if it is determined that the criterion for the user-selected reliability parameter is not met.
