Approach and runway coverage

Alpena County Regional has published approaches serving all four ends of its two runways. The mix of ILS, RNAV (GPS), VOR and localiser procedures provides several procedure families rather than concentrating instrument coverage on one alignment or method. Runway 01/19 is 3,973 ft longer than 07/25, giving the two alignments distinctly different available lengths.

Coverage around Alpena

Nearby chart coverage is notably thinner. Gaylord Regional has the broadest neighbouring set with five charts, while Iosco County has only two; the other listed fields fall between those totals. The Lake Huron Sectional complements Alpena’s terminal procedures with the wider visual and en-route context of a VFR chart.
