Approach and runway coverage

Fairmont’s instrument procedures serve two of its four runway ends. The three approach plates provide both GPS-based access and ILS/localiser guidance, but leave the remaining two ends without a published approach. Runway 13/31 offers 2,204 ft more length than 02/20, making the longer alignment the relevant option where more than 3,301 ft is required.

Nearby and VFR chart context

Nearby procedure coverage is relatively even but thinner: St James, Jackson and Windom each have four published charts, while Blue Earth has only two. The Green Bay and Omaha sectionals place Fairmont within a wider VFR planning context not supplied by the terminal procedure plates.
