A system includes an engine manufacturer database communicatively coupled to a blockchain database through a network and a ground station configured to wirelessly communicate with a communication adapter of a gas turbine engine of an aircraft. The communication adapter includes a communication interface configured to communicate with an engine control of a gas turbine engine. The system is further configured to monitor the blockchain database for a configuration update associated with the aircraft and update the engine manufacturer database based on the configuration update. The system is further configured to command a synchronization of the configuration update from the engine manufacturer database to a communication adapter of the gas turbine engine tracked by the engine manufacturer database and transmit the configuration update wirelessly to the communication adapter through the communication interface to update a data storage unit of the gas turbine engine with the configuration update.
