Approach and runway coverage

Only two of Draughon-Miller’s four runway ends have published approaches. The three plates collectively provide ILS, localiser and RNAV (GPS) options, concentrating instrument coverage on half of the available runway directions. Runway 16/34 is 2,260 ft longer than 03/21, so any operation requiring more than 4,740 ft of runway is limited by length to 16/34.

Surrounding chart coverage

Robert Gray AAF and Waco Regional have notably broader procedure collections, while Skylark Field and Mc Gregor Executive are closer to Draughon-Miller’s coverage level. Marlin’s two-chart set is much thinner. The Houston and San Antonio sectionals add wider-area visual context beyond the airport-specific instrument procedures.
