An aircraft pilot incapacitation detection system includes a controller configured to determine, based on an input received from a flight control computer, a current flight parameter. The controller compares the current flight parameter to a corresponding predetermined flight metric associated with at least one of a predetermined flight plan or a benchmark for a predetermined flight stage. The controller determines, responsive to the comparison, that the aircraft is in an abnormal state and causes a first prompt by a user interface in communication with the controller, the first prompt being associated with a first time threshold. The controller determines whether the first time threshold is satisfied and, if so, subsequently initiates an emergency protocol and causes a second prompt associated with a second time threshold. Upon determining that the second time threshold has been satisfied, the controller carries out the emergency protocol.
