What KBJC publishes

Airport diagram

The FAA airport diagram for Rocky Mountain Metro — runways, taxiways, ramps and hold short lines. Shown in the browser above; the FAA PDF ↗ is the authoritative copy.

Instrument approaches at KBJC

Rocky Mountain Metro has 6 published instrument approaches of 4 types (ILS, RNAV (GPS), VOR and RED ROCKS VISUAL RWY 12L/R). 4 of them offer vertical guidance; ILS gives the lowest minimums.

No published approach to runway 12R, 03 and 21: landing on those ends in instrument conditions means a circling approach or a visual after breaking out.

Departures and arrivals

Rocky Mountain Metro publishes 9 departure procedures (SIDs) — charted routes from the runway to the en route structure, assigned by ATC in the clearance. It also publishes 10 arrivals (STARs), the mirror image: charted routes from the en route structure down to where the approach begins. Each one is in the list at the foot of this page with its continuation pages.

Hot spots at KBJC

The FAA publishes 2 hot spots here but no shapes, so they are not drawn on the map. Brief the descriptions against the airport diagram.

  • HS 1 Pilots taxiing S on Twy D and instructed to cross Rwy 03 mistakenly turn onto Rwy 03. Pilots taxiing on Rwy 03 and instructed to hold short of Rwy 12R/30L fail to hold short. Hold line immediately after turn onto Rwy 03.
  • HS 2 Multiple hold lines in close proximity. Hold line on Twy B south of Rwy 12R–30L is prior to Twy D. Pilots should use caution and hold short when instructed by ATC.

Locations on the airport surface with a history of confusion or runway incursions — brief them against the diagram before taxi. Source: FAA Chart Supplement, reproduced verbatim on the 56-day cycle; the numbers match the circled HS markers on the diagram.

Takeoff, alternate and surface information

  • Takeoff minimums are published for KBJC. Standard is 1 statute mile visibility for one and two engine aircraft (½ mile for more than two) unless this section says otherwise; Part 91 operators are not bound by them but the obstacle notes apply to everyone.
  • A diverse vector area (DVA) is established, so ATC can issue radar vectors below the minimum vectoring altitude right after departure.
  • Non standard alternate minimums are published: if you file KBJC as an IFR alternate, the required forecast is higher than the default 600-2 for precision or 800-2 for non precision approaches. Check the alternate rule tool.
