Approaches on both ends

Falmouth Airpark’s compact set is symmetrical: one RNAV (GPS) procedure serves Runway 07 and another serves Runway 25. Each end therefore has a published instrument approach, but no other approach type is represented. With a single 2,298 ft runway, there is no second alignment or longer strip; aircraft requiring more runway cannot use another option on the field.

Chart context

Nearby fields carry markedly broader procedure libraries. KFMH and KHYA have the largest sets at 11 charts each, while KPYM has the thinnest nearby set at eight—still twice Falmouth’s four. The New York Sectional supplies wider visual-navigation context, while the Boston Terminal Area Chart provides a more detailed terminal-area view than the airport diagram and approach procedures.
