Two GPS approach paths

Viroqua Muni’s instrument coverage is compact and balanced: its two RNAV (GPS) procedures serve two different runway ends. This provides published approaches in two directions, but no alternative approach type is represented. With no airport diagram, the set concentrates on approach and minimums material rather than detailed ground-layout charting.

Runways and surrounding coverage

Runway 11/29 provides 1,576 ft more length than the turf 02/20, creating a substantial difference in both length and surface between the two alignments. Among nearby airports, KLSE has the broadest chart set, KCMY is also broader, KOVS matches Viroqua’s coverage, and KCHU and Y72 are thinner. The Chicago Sectional adds wider visual-navigation context beyond the airport’s GPS procedures.
