Instrument coverage and runway choice

Only two of Hollister Municipal’s four runway ends have published instrument approaches, and both are RNAV (GPS). The set therefore offers no non-GPS procedure and leaves the other two ends without an approach. Runway length is sharply divided: 13/31, at 6,350 ft, is just over twice the length of 06/24. Any aircraft needing more than 3,149 ft is consequently confined to 13/31 by the published dimensions.

Coverage around Hollister

Nearby procedure coverage is substantially broader at Salinas Municipal, Monterey Regional and Watsonville Municipal. Marina Municipal matches Hollister’s four-chart total, while San Martin’s three-chart set is slightly thinner. The San Francisco Sectional supplies wider VFR context absent from the approach sheets, while the lack of a published airport diagram leaves no dedicated ground-layout chart.
