Due to the small size of Mönchengladbach, the operation is limited to general aviation and business jets.
Pilots flying unsuitably large aircraft (e.g. A320/B737) should be reminded about the small size of the airport and its short runway length (1200m).
Parking Positions
Preferred parking for business jets are the taxi-out positions in front of the Terminal. Other aircraft can be parked either at the Comercial area in the sout east. For refueling the gas station east of taxiway E is used.
IFR Procedures
Both runways are equipped with an ILS, RNP or VOR approach.
Departure Spacing
Two aircraft on the same SID require a minimum spacing of 5 NM. All IFR departures require a departure release by Langen Radar prior to issuing a takeoff clearance.
