Approach coverage across both parallels

John Glenn Columbus International’s instrument set serves all four ends of its two parallel runways, rather than concentrating procedures on one direction. Its combination of ILS, localiser and RNAV (GPS) procedures provides both ground-based and satellite-based approach coverage. Runway 10R/28L is 2,114 ft longer than 10L/28R, giving the parallel layout a meaningful difference in available runway length.

Regional chart context

Nearby procedure coverage is broadest at Rickenbacker International and Ohio State University, with Bolton Field also carrying a substantial set. Fairfield County and Delaware Municipal/Jim Moore Field are much more thinly charted. The Cincinnati and Detroit sectionals add wider VFR context beyond the airport diagram and terminal procedures.
