Approach coverage across both runways

De Kalb Taylor Municipal’s procedure set serves all four runway ends, rather than concentrating instrument access on one alignment. RNAV (GPS) procedures provide most of that coverage, while ILS and localiser options add ground-based guidance. The 7,026 ft runway is markedly longer than the intersecting 4,201 ft runway, giving the two alignments distinctly different length constraints. No standalone airport diagram is published.

Regional chart context

Nearby Aurora Municipal and DuPage each have substantially broader chart sets, while Chicago/Rockford International has the largest selection listed. Rochelle Municipal/Koritz Field and Lake in the Hills have thinner coverage than De Kalb. The Chicago Sectional, Terminal Area Chart and Helicopter Route Chart add visual, terminal-area and helicopter-routing context beyond the instrument procedures.
