Albany’s ten approach plates serve all four ends of its two-runway layout, so the procedure set is not concentrated on a single landing direction. RNAV (GPS) provides the largest share, while ILS, localiser and VOR procedures provide a varied instrument mix. One ILS includes CAT II/III minima, adding a notably deeper low-visibility procedure to the set. The 8,500 ft runway offers 1,300 ft more length than the other alignment, making runway choice a material difference in available distance.
Among nearby fields, Schenectady County’s nine-chart set is closest in breadth to Albany’s; South Albany and William H Morse State each have only three, while Saratoga County and Fulton County have four. The New York Sectional adds the wider VFR context that airport-specific terminal procedures do not show.
