What KVGT publishes

Airport diagram

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

Instrument approaches at KVGT

North Las Vegas has 2 published instrument approaches of 2 types (ILS and RNAV (GPS)). 2 of them offer vertical guidance; ILS gives the lowest minimums.

No published approach to runway 07, 25, 30L and 30R: landing on those ends in instrument conditions means a circling approach or a visual after breaking out.

Departures and arrivals

North Las Vegas publishes 1 departure procedure (SID) — charted routes from the runway to the en route structure, assigned by ATC in the clearance. It also publishes 3 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 KVGT

The FAA publishes 4 hot spots here but no shapes, so they are not drawn on the map. Brief the descriptions against the airport diagram.

HS 1 Runway Incursion Risk. Rwy 07 Holding Position Markings at Twy F and Twy G. Close proximity to ramp and run–up area. Pilots assigned Rwy 07 or instructed to hold short cross the holding position markings without authorization.
HS 2 Runway Incursion Risk. Rwy 12R Holding Position Markings at Twy G. Pilots instructed to cross Rwy 07 and hold short of Rwy 12R cross the holding position markings without authorization.
HS 3 Runway Incursion risk. When taxiing to Rwy 12R–30L at Twy A via Twy R, the Runway Holding Position Marking for Rwy 12R–30L is encountered immediately.
HS 4 Runway Incursion and Wrong Surface Departure Risk. Rwy 12L at Twy A. Inline taxiway from Twy A to threshold. Pilots cross Rwy 12L approach hold markings without authorization, or incorrectly depart on Twy A.

Takeoff, alternate and surface information

Takeoff minimums are published for KVGT. 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.
North Las Vegas has an obstacle departure procedure (ODP): the charted way to clear terrain and obstacles after takeoff in instrument conditions. ATC does not assign it; under Part 91 it is recommended rather than required, and it is what you fly when no SID or radar vectors have been given.
Non standard alternate minimums are published: if you file KVGT 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.
