Approach and runway coverage

Three of North Platte’s four runway ends have published approaches, leaving one end without an instrument procedure this cycle. The mix includes ILS/localiser, RNAV (GPS) and VOR coverage, providing both satellite-based and ground-based options rather than relying on a single approach type. Runway 12/30 is 3,565 ft longer than 17/35, so the two available alignments differ substantially in usable length.

Regional chart context

Searle Field has the nearest comparable chart coverage, with seven published charts against North Platte’s eight. Gothenburg Municipal, Cozad Municipal and Jim Kelly Field each have four, while Curtis Municipal has three, making their procedure sets notably thinner. The Cheyenne and Omaha sectionals add broader VFR context beyond the airport diagram and terminal procedures.
