The take-off and landing phases are considered the critical stages of aircraft flight. To ensure flight efficiency and safety in the critical stages, this research proposes a method for analyzing and monitoring pilot flight status by β-wave. The focus of the study is β potential changes on the EEG map. First, the proportion of β-wave in the electroencephalogram (EEG) of pilots during take-off and landing increases significantly. Second, the EEG map accurately and intuitively reflects the spatial distribution of potential changes in brain regions. Finally, correlation and machine learning are used for further research of β-wave. The conclusions show that the significant changes in the β-wave caused by take-off and landing can be seen in the EEG map to identify and adjust the pilot's state. Therefore, this research provides more accurate and effective reference information (like the EEG map, correlation and machine learning) for efficient and safe flight training in the critical stages.
