Madison Municipal’s instrument coverage is tightly focused: one RNAV (GPS) approach serves each of two runway ends, with no other approach type represented. The two runways differ sharply in practical terms: the 5,000 ft paved runway provides more than twice the length of the 2,380 ft turf runway, making the available length and surface dependent on the chosen alignment. No airport diagram is published.
Joe Foss Field has the broadest nearby procedure set, with 17 charts. Brookings Regional and Mitchell Municipal offer moderately larger collections than Madison, while Wilder and Pipestone Municipal each match Madison’s total of four. The Omaha Sectional adds the wider visual and geographic context absent from the airport’s instrument procedure sheets.
