Approach coverage across both runways

Philip Billard Municipal’s procedure set serves all four runway ends, rather than concentrating instrument access on a single alignment. It combines RNAV (GPS) coverage with localiser procedures and an ILS, providing both satellite-based and ground-based approach options. No departure procedures are published this cycle, so the chart set is distinctly weighted towards arrivals. Runway 13/31 provides 768 ft more length than 18/36, making the available distance notably different between the two alignments.

Nearby and VFR chart coverage

New Century Aircenter has the broadest nearby procedure set, with Sherman AAF and Topeka Regional also carrying substantial coverage. Lawrence Regional’s set is similar in scale to TOP’s, while Ottawa Municipal’s is markedly thinner. The Kansas City sectional adds wider regional VFR context, and the Terminal Area Chart supplies more focused terminal-area detail.
