Approach and runway coverage

TSTC Waco’s three approach charts serve only two of its four runway ends. The available procedures include ILS and localiser coverage alongside two RNAV (GPS) options, concentrating instrument access on half of the parallel-runway configuration. The 8,600 ft runway provides 2,309 ft more available length than the 6,291 ft parallel runway, giving the two strips materially different planning dimensions despite sharing the same alignment.

Local chart context

Waco Regional has the broadest nearby procedure set, while Mc Gregor Executive’s coverage is closest in scale to TSTC Waco’s. Hillsboro Municipal is thinner, and Marlin and Mexia-Limestone County have only limited published coverage. Three sectional charts add wider visual-navigation context beyond the airport-specific diagram and instrument procedures.
