Approach and runway coverage

Barrow County’s four approach plates serve three of its four runway ends, leaving one end without a published instrument approach. Three RNAV (GPS) procedures provide most of the coverage, while the ILS and localiser add ground-based guidance, including a precision option. Runway length differs substantially: at 5,505 ft, 13/31 is 1,898 ft longer than 05/23, making it the only alignment available where more than 3,607 ft is required.

Surrounding chart coverage

Among the nearby fields, Gwinnett County/Briscoe Field has the broadest chart set and Jackson County the thinnest; Lee Gilmer Memorial matches Barrow County’s total. The Atlanta Sectional adds broad-area VFR context, while the Atlanta Terminal Area Chart provides a more detailed terminal-area view.
