Chicago/Rockford’s four runway ends all have published approach coverage. The mix of ILS, RNAV (GPS) and localiser procedures provides more than one form of guidance, while the CAT II/III minima attached to one ILS distinguish a single runway end within the set. With two runway alignments and neither runway shorter than 8,200 ft, the layout offers substantial available length in either direction.
Nearby procedure coverage is markedly thinner. De Kalb Taylor Municipal has the broadest neighbouring set at seven charts, while Poplar Grove and Beloit each have only two. The Chicago Sectional supplies the wider VFR context around the field; the Chicago Terminal Area Chart adds a more detailed view of the surrounding terminal area than the instrument procedures provide.
