COVER ILLUSTRATION Microstates are electrophysiological correlates of the coordinated activity of different neuronal assemblies, such that changes in topographies are representative of the overall modifications in neuronal activity dynamic over time. Given the evidence that specific microstates may be associated with perception and attention, in this work we explore for the first time the application of the microstate model in an ecological, dynamic and complex scenario. More specifically, we evaluated elite helicopter pilots during engine‐failure missions. Our results suggest that microstates are promising neural correlates to evaluate realistic situations, even in a challenging and intrinsically noisy environment.
