Approaches across both runways

Delta County’s procedure set serves all four ends of runways 01/19 and 10/28, rather than concentrating instrument approaches on one alignment. RNAV (GPS) procedures are accompanied by ILS, localiser and VOR options, giving the field both satellite-based and ground-based approach types. At 6,498 ft, runway 10/28 provides 1,482 ft more length than 01/19, making it the clearly longer alignment.

Regional chart context

Among the listed nearby fields, Menominee Regional has the closest breadth of chart coverage, with seven charts against Delta County’s ten. Marquette/Sawyer Regional has five, while the remaining airports have only three or four. The Green Bay Sectional adds the wider VFR planning context around Escanaba and the surrounding fields, complementing the airport-specific instrument procedures.
