Both published approaches are RNAV (GPS) procedures, together serving two of the field’s four runway ends. Instrument coverage is therefore limited to half of the available ends rather than extending across both runway alignments. The 2,277 ft turf runway provides a second alignment but is only just over half the length of the 4,302 ft asphalt runway, creating a much tighter runway-length envelope.
Among the nearby fields, KHYX has the broadest procedure set, while 77G matches KCFS in total chart coverage. D95 is similarly covered; Y83 and especially 3CM have thinner sets. The Detroit Sectional adds the broader visual-reference and surrounding aeronautical context not contained in the airport-specific instrument procedures.
