Instrument procedure shape

KEYW’s instrument access is balanced across its single runway: one RNAV (GPS) approach serves each end of 09/27, with no other approach type published. The 5,076 ft runway gives aircraft requiring greater take-off or landing distance no longer option at the field, while the airport diagram provides the ground layout.

Nearby and VFR coverage

Four miles east, Key West NAS has a substantially broader chart set than KEYW. Florida Keys Marathon International, 40 miles east, has much thinner procedure coverage. The Miami Sectional and Caribbean 1 VFR chart add wider visual-navigation context not contained in the airport’s instrument procedures, placing Key West within both Miami-area and Caribbean chart coverage.
