A compact GPS-only procedure set

Skaneateles Aero Drome’s instrument coverage is narrowly focused: both published approaches are RNAV (GPS), with no departure procedures or airport diagram. The two runway alignments provide directional choice, but the longer runway is turf. Aircraft requiring a paved runway therefore have the 3,134 ft length of 10/28 rather than the 3,350 ft available on 04/22.

Coverage around Skaneateles

Nearby chart coverage varies sharply. Syracuse Hancock International has by far the broadest set, while Ithaca Tompkins International and Cortland County/Chase Field occupy the middle ground. Whitfords and Finger Lakes Regional have chart sets closer in scale to Skaneateles. The New York Sectional adds broader visual-navigation context that is not provided by this small, arrival-focused instrument collection.
