Procedure coverage

North Central State’s four approaches are concentrated on only two of its four runway ends, leaving the other two without a published instrument approach. The combination of two RNAV (GPS) procedures, a VOR approach and a localiser approach provides both satellite-based and ground-based options. The 1,789 ft difference between the runways makes 05/23 the only strip able to accommodate a take-off or landing roll beyond 3,211 ft.

Nearby chart sets and VFR coverage

KPVD has a substantially broader procedure set, while KOQU also has greater chart coverage. Mansfield Municipal is closest in scale to North Central State; Hopedale Industrial Park and Danielson have much thinner sets. For visual planning around Pawtucket, the New York Sectional supplies broader regional context, while the Boston Terminal Area Chart adds a more detailed terminal-area depiction not provided by the instrument procedures.
