Approach and runway picture

Monticello Regional’s instrument coverage is focused: two RNAV (GPS) approaches serve two runway ends, with no published airport diagram. The 4,400 ft concrete runway provides substantially more available length than the 2,300 ft turf runway, making the distinction between the two strips important when matching runway requirements and surface needs.

Coverage around Monticello

Nearby procedure coverage varies sharply. Dubuque Regional, with 14 charts, and The Eastern Iowa, with 10, have much broader published sets than Monticello. Marion and Maquoketa Municipal each have similarly compact three-chart collections, while Mathews Memorial is thinner still with two. The Chicago Sectional adds the wider regional VFR picture that the airport’s small terminal procedure set does not provide.
