Approach coverage across both runways

Central Wisconsin’s six approach plates collectively cover all four ends of its two runway alignments. The mix of ILS, localiser and RNAV (GPS) procedures means instrument coverage is not concentrated on a single runway direction. Both concrete runways exceed 6,500 ft, with 08/26 offering the greater available length; the airport diagram is therefore useful for distinguishing the two alignments and their connecting layout.

Regional chart context

Stevens Point Municipal has the nearest comparably broad procedure set, while Marshfield Municipal is only slightly thinner. Wausau Downtown, Merrill Municipal and Alexander Field South Wood County each have markedly fewer published charts. The Green Bay Sectional adds the wider visual context around Mosinee that the airport diagram and terminal procedures do not provide.
