Concentrated approach coverage

Grant County’s six approaches serve only one end of runway 13/31, making the instrument coverage distinctly one-sided. Four RNAV (GPS) procedures form the core, supplemented by a VOR approach and a helicopter procedure. The single 5,000 ft runway provides no alternative alignment, while the absence of a published airport diagram leaves the procedure set without a dedicated airfield-layout sheet.

Nearby chart coverage

Elkins/Randolph County has a comparably broad chart set. Luray Caverns is somewhat thinner, while New Market, Garrett County and Bridgewater Air Park have substantially fewer published procedures. W99 lies on both the Cincinnati and Washington sectional charts, adding wider VFR context beyond the airport-specific instrument procedures.
