OBJECTIVE: To study EEG during simulated flight training, then to explore the situational character of mental fatigue of the pilots.METHODS: Fifty male pilots were randomly choice to be recorded their EEG including rest,flight and recovery phase. Then the band waves of EEG were analysed among the th
