Approach coverage at Bowerman Field

Bowerman Field’s four approach plates serve both ends of its sole 5,000 ft runway. The mix includes ILS and localiser coverage alongside two RNAV (GPS) approaches and a VOR procedure, providing several forms of instrument guidance despite the single runway alignment. No separate airport diagram is published, so the procedure set centres on the approaches and associated minimums.

Nearby chart coverage

Among nearby fields, Astoria Regional and Olympia Regional have the broadest chart sets, with roughly twice Bowerman Field’s total coverage. Sanderson Field and Ed Carlson Memorial Field/South Lewis County have thinner sets, while Chehalis-Centralia has the fewest charts. The Seattle Sectional adds the wider VFR context around Hoquiam that the terminal procedure sheets do not provide.
