Every end of Gerald R Ford International’s three runways has a published approach. The 11 approach plates span ILS, localiser, RNAV (GPS) and VOR procedures, providing both satellite-based and conventional coverage across the runway layout rather than concentrating procedures on one alignment. Runway lengths vary markedly: the 10,001 ft and 8,501 ft strips support greater runway-length requirements than the 5,001 ft parallel runway. An airport diagram and separate hotspot chart provide dedicated ground-layout information.
Nearby procedure coverage is much thinner: Hastings, Paul C Miller/Sparta and Ionia County have four charts each, while Ottawa Executive has only two. The Chicago and Detroit sectionals add broader VFR airspace and visual-reference context beyond the airport-specific terminal procedures.
