Approaches on every runway end

Hays Regional’s nine approach charts serve all four runway ends, so the procedure set is not concentrated on a single direction. Four RNAV (GPS) and four VOR approaches, together with ILS and localiser capability, provide both satellite-based and ground-based coverage.

The two runway alignments differ materially in available length. Only 16/34 exceeds 4,501 ft, so any requirement for more runway than that leaves 16/34 as the sole choice.

Coverage around Hays

No listed nearby airport has comparably broad overall chart coverage: Great Bend has six charts and Russell five, while Rooks County has four and Trego WaKeeney and Ness City have three each. The Wichita Sectional adds the wider visual navigation context absent from airport-specific terminal procedures.
