Narrative:

Aircraft X penetrated adjacent airspace west/O coordination with that facility. Airspace deviation was detected after resolving the sequencing vectors for 8 other aircraft within 18 NM of the airport. Scan of all my airspace was interrupted due to the sequencing and spacing of those 8 aircraft in close proximity to one another. Factors affecting this deviation may be related to concern of spacing/sequencing of arrival traffic. Callback conversation with reporter revealed the following: reporter stated the type aircraft was a cpr light transport. The aircraft entered ZMP airspace. No action was taken to coordinate because the aircraft descended back into reporter's airspace. Reporter did not report incident.

Original NASA ASRS Text

Title: ACFT X PENETRATED ZMP AIRSPACE WITHOUT COORD. OPERATIONAL DEVIATION.

Narrative: ACFT X PENETRATED ADJACENT AIRSPACE W/O COORD WITH THAT FAC. AIRSPACE DEVIATION WAS DETECTED AFTER RESOLVING THE SEQUENCING VECTORS FOR 8 OTHER ACFT WITHIN 18 NM OF THE ARPT. SCAN OF ALL MY AIRSPACE WAS INTERRUPTED DUE TO THE SEQUENCING AND SPACING OF THOSE 8 ACFT IN CLOSE PROX TO ONE ANOTHER. FACTORS AFFECTING THIS DEVIATION MAY BE RELATED TO CONCERN OF SPACING/SEQUENCING OF ARR TFC. CALLBACK CONVERSATION WITH RPTR REVEALED THE FOLLOWING: RPTR STATED THE TYPE ACFT WAS A CPR LTT. THE ACFT ENTERED ZMP AIRSPACE. NO ACTION WAS TAKEN TO COORDINATE BECAUSE THE ACFT DSNDED BACK INTO RPTR'S AIRSPACE. RPTR DID NOT RPT INCIDENT.
