Blue Earth Municipal’s instrument provision is concentrated on a single RNAV (GPS) approach serving only one runway end. There is therefore no equivalent published approach for the opposite end or either end of the second runway. The 3,400 ft concrete runway provides the longer paved alignment, while the 2,245 ft turf runway offers a shorter cross-alignment.
Nearby Fairmont Municipal and Forest City Municipal/Trimble Field have the broadest procedure sets in the area, with St James Municipal and Albert Lea Municipal only slightly behind; Estherville Municipal has the thinnest nearby set, though still more charts than Blue Earth. Coverage on both the Chicago and Omaha sectionals adds wider visual-chart context not supplied by the airport’s single instrument procedure.

2 current FAA charts for Blue Earth Muni, including 1 instrument approach. All are free to download as PDFs from this page, from the 6 August 2026 cycle.
CTAF 122.8. Full civil VHF list, with sector notes, is in the frequencies table on this page — from the FAA NASR subscription.
Blue Earth Muni has 2 runways. The longest is 16/34 at 3,400 ft by 75 ft, concrete. Full runway dimensions, lighting and approach aids are listed on this page.
No ILS is published. In total KSBU has 1 published instrument approach, of which 1 are RNAV (GPS).
Every published approach serves one runway end. There is no instrument procedure to the reciprocal direction, so an arrival in instrument conditions commits to that single approach direction regardless of the wind.
No — Blue Earth Muni has no control tower. Traffic co-ordinates on a common frequency rather than with a controller, which is listed in the frequencies table on this page.
