Approach coverage

Virginia Tech/Montgomery Executive has instrument approaches to both ends of its sole runway, so coverage is not confined to one direction. Two RNAV (GPS) procedures are complemented by a localiser approach, providing a non-GPS option within an otherwise compact chart set. The single 5,501 ft runway means there is no alternative runway alignment.

Regional chart context

Roanoke/Blacksburg Regional has substantially broader procedure coverage nearby, while Twin County’s set is notably thinner. New River Valley, Mercer County and Greenbrier Valley are closer matches to BCB in overall chart breadth. The Cincinnati Sectional adds the wider visual-navigation context around Blacksburg that the airport’s terminal procedures do not provide.
