Charleston AFB/Intl has instrument procedures serving all four ends of its two runways. The mix of ILS, RNAV (GPS), VOR and localiser procedures provides several forms of published guidance rather than relying on a single approach type. One ILS also carries CAT II/III minima, a capability not shared by the other approaches. The 9,001 ft runway offers 2,001 ft more length than the second alignment, while the 7,000 ft runway preserves another substantial take-off and landing direction.
Among nearby fields, Charleston Executive has the broadest chart coverage, though still markedly fewer procedures than CHS. Mt Pleasant, Summerville, Berkeley County and St George have much thinner sets. The Charlotte Sectional adds the wider visual-planning context beyond the airport-specific terminal procedures.
