Use Vector math and trigger events. If the normal of the CC is point in the Z-axis for this example. Then in order to tell if the plane is behind the CC would be for the normal of the plane to be pointing in the opposite direction of the player. Something like this

http://shrib.com/normals

Thus we can tell the CC is behind in plane, but we don't want this for every time the plane is behind the player for no reason. So only check this for the case, the plane leave the collider of the CC. Therefore you could use Unity's OnTriggerExit function.

Here is an example of this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q9FZllr6-wY&list=PLW3Zl3wyJwWOpdhYedlD-yCB7WQoHf-$$anonymous$$y∈dex=9

Which uses Dot Products. The video explains the offsets for the dot product because it is very hard to achieve normals to be perfectly parallel using the dot product, so leave some wiggle room.
