A computer-implemented method is provided for displaying navigation information to a crew member of an aircraft during flight of the aircraft. The method includes determining a current position of an aircraft, and identifying the active and pending airspace regions based on the current position and the flight path. Boundary segments of the identified active and pending regions are obtained from a navigation database, and an image 60 is displayed showing an indication of the current position 61 of the aircraft, the flight path 39, a boundary segment 62, 64 of the active region, and a boundary segment 62, 63 of the pending airspace region. It may be that no images are displayed during flight along the flight path which includes boundary segments of peripheral regions which are not either active or pending. Each region of airspace may be a flight information region (FIR).
