Dixon Municipal–Charles R Walgreen Field has four runway ends, but published approaches serve only two, and both use RNAV (GPS). Instrument coverage is therefore selective rather than extending to every runway alignment. The two asphalt runways are notably unequal in length: 08/26 provides 1,094 ft more pavement than 12/30, creating a clear distinction between the longer and shorter options.
Chicago/Rockford International has by far the broadest nearby procedure set. Whiteside County and Albertus occupy a middle ground, while Rochelle Municipal and Illinois Valley Regional have chart collections only marginally broader than Dixon’s. The Chicago Sectional adds regional visual-reference and aeronautical context not contained in the approach and minimums documents.
