What KPOU publishes
Airport diagram
The FAA airport diagram for Hudson Valley Regional — runways, taxiways, ramps and hold short lines. Shown in the browser above; the FAA PDF ↗ is the authoritative copy.
Instrument approaches at KPOU
Hudson Valley Regional has 5 published instrument approaches of 3 types (ILS, RNAV (GPS) and VOR). 3 of them offer vertical guidance; ILS gives the lowest minimums. One is circling only — bringing you to the airport rather than a runway, to circle for whichever runway the wind favors at circling minimums.
No published approach to runway 15, 33, 07 and 25: landing on those ends in instrument conditions means a circling approach or a visual after breaking out.
Departures and arrivals
Hudson Valley Regional publishes 1 departure procedure (SID) — charted routes from the runway to the en route structure, assigned by ATC in the clearance. It also publishes 1 arrival (STAR), 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 KPOU
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.

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 KPOU. 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.
- Non standard alternate minimums are published: if you file KPOU 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.
