One approach, one runway end

Thibodaux Municipal’s instrument coverage centres on a single RNAV (GPS) approach serving one end of Runway 08/26; the reciprocal end has no published approach. Runway 08/26 is the sole alignment, and its 2,999 ft length limits use to aircraft able to take off and land within that distance. There is no dedicated airport diagram.

Regional and visual coverage

Nearby procedure coverage varies markedly. Houma-Terrebonne has 11 charts and Louis Armstrong New Orleans International has 24, while Port of South Louisiana Executive Regional, Louisiana Regional and Harry P Williams Memorial each have only five or six. Two sectionals provide broader visual context, supplemented by New Orleans terminal-area detail and the specialised routing shown on the US Gulf Coast Helicopter Route Chart.
