1. A method for monitoring compliance with a non-transgression zone between aircraft approach corridors, the method comprising:

  • determining, with processing circuitry, a predicted path of an aircraft during a flight based upon at least a representation of a roll angle of the aircraft and a cross-track component of velocity of the aircraft;

    identifying an instance in which the predicted path of the aircraft during the flight intersects the non-transgression zone; and

    with the processing circuitry, interacting with a user interface to cause an alert to be issued in the instance in which the predicted path of the aircraft during the flight intersects the non-transgression zone, wherein interacting with the user interface comprises interacting with a display to cause a visual alert to be issued in the instance in which the predicted path of the aircraft during the flight intersects the non-transgression zone or interacting with one or more speakers to cause an audible alert to be issued in the instance in which the predicted path of the aircraft during the flight intersects the non-transgression zone.
