Reliability Centered Maintenance
As a former aircraft engineer, current pilot and aircraft owner I am firmly with Creampuff on this one.
More damage has been done to my Cessna by engineers pulling it apart to do inspections than has been found by the inspections.
RCM is what should be used and in a way has been in Schedule 5 however that was based on post war aircraft not on later american manufactured machines.
The key with RCM is continuous review. There is a lot of scientific literature on the use of RCM to manage complex systems.
