In the aviation industry, fuel efficiency and emissions reductions are critical, but safety and performance must also be maintained. Using predictive analytics, we can identify trends, patterns and inefficiencies in fuel consumption and optimize engine performance. Using machine learning algorithms, we develop an analytical model to predict fuel consumption on a Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner. To predict fuel consumption, we evaluate several machine learning algorithms, including General Linear Regression (GLR), random forest, gradient boosting and Artificial Neural Networks (ANN). A stepwise linear regression algorithm provided the best performance with a Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE) of 1.0532. Temperature, thrust, altitude and Mach number affect the Trent 1000 engine's fuel consumption. It is possible to identify inefficiencies and opportunities for improvement by predicting fuel con..
