Seven approaches serve three of Salinas Municipal’s four runway ends, leaving one end without a published instrument approach. The mix of ILS, localiser, RNAV (GPS) and VOR procedures provides both satellite-based and ground-based options. Two runway alignments offer 6,004 ft and 4,825 ft of available length, with the longer runway providing the greater margin for aircraft requiring more distance.
Monterey Regional’s ten-chart set is closest in breadth to Salinas, while Watsonville Municipal also has substantial coverage with eight. Marina Municipal and Hollister Municipal each have four charts, and San Martin has three. Both the Los Angeles and San Francisco sectionals cover Salinas, adding wider VFR planning context beyond the airport’s terminal procedures.
