Concentrated instrument coverage

Capital City’s ILS, localiser and RNAV (GPS) procedures serve only two of its four runway ends, concentrating instrument coverage rather than spreading it across both alignments. Runway 08/26 provides 1,222 ft more length than 12/30, making it the available strip for aircraft requiring more than 3,778 ft; the maximum available length is 5,000 ft.

Regional chart context

Nearby Harrisburg International has a slightly broader procedure set, while York’s coverage is smaller but still more extensive than the two or three charts published for Reigle Field, Donegal Springs Airpark and Carlisle. The Detroit, New York and Washington sectional charts add wider VFR context beyond the airport diagram and terminal procedures.
