Made like something you keep.

The field itself

This is Anaconda's own layout, the way its runways run and the taxiways thread between them, composed into a print you will want to look at every day. Not a stock template with a new name on it.

Museum-quality cotton paper

Heavyweight 330 gsm, 100% cotton Hot Press paper, acid-free and archival-grade. Its high color gamut and black density give the runways real depth, and pigment inks keep the fine detail crisp on a smooth matte surface.

Solid wood framing or glossy metal

Frame it in 1.25 inch solid wood, black, white or natural oak, with the white beveled mat, optical-grade clear acrylic and hanging wire included. Or choose glossy metal: dye sublimation into aluminum, floated about 3/4 inch off the wall on a hidden mount.

Bowman Field Runway Diagram Print

Bowman Field (3U3) is drawn as two runways that meet near one corner of the sheet. Runway 17/35 runs straight up the page as a single dark bar, and 04/22 leaves its lower end on a diagonal toward the upper right, so the two together read as a long narrow V with taxiway lines threaded between them. Nothing crosses. The open space inside the V is most of what you see, and that emptiness is the composition.

The figures behind the shapes are plain. Runway 17/35 is the long one at 6010 by 75 feet, asphalt. Runway 04/22 is 4074 by 60 feet, also asphalt. The field elevation, 5034 feet, sits in the caption block under the identifier along with the coordinates, and the published magnetic variation is 14E. Two runways, both paved, one clearly dominant: that is the whole layout, and the drawing does not pad it out.

As artwork this one works because of the restraint. The bars are heavy and black against an open field of color, the aprons and hangar shapes are reduced to soft grey marks near the middle of the diagonal, and the identifier anchors the lower right. Held at a distance it is a graphic mark first and a diagram second, which is why it holds a wall rather than a pinboard. It is rendered from published airport information in the colorway you choose. The Butte print can hang beside this one.

Anaconda (3U3) print, common questions

How many runways does Bowman Field have?

Two. Runway 17/35 is 6010 by 75 feet and runway 04/22 is 4074 by 60 feet, both asphalt. The print draws them meeting near their lower ends in a narrow V.

What is the longest runway at 3U3?

Runway 17/35 at 6010 feet, 75 feet wide. It is the vertical bar on the print, and it is noticeably longer than 04/22 at 4074 feet.

Where is Bowman Field and how high is it?

Anaconda, Montana. The caption block carries the coordinates, 46.1534 N and 112.8677 W, and the field elevation of 5034 feet.

What does 3U3 stand for?

3U3 is the location identifier for Bowman Field. There is no ICAO code in the published data for this field, so 3U3 is the single code used on the artwork.

How accurate is the layout on the print?

Runway positions, lengths and relative angles follow the published runway data for the field, but this is artwork rather than a navigation chart, and fine details may be simplified or omitted. Pavement markings and lighting are the sort of thing left out at this scale.

What formats and sizes are available, and does it work as a gift?

It comes as a Fine Art Print, a Framed Fine Art Print, a Glossy Metal Print or a Digital Download, in a range of sizes. It reads well as a gift for anyone with a tie to Bowman Field, since the identifier and the runway shapes are recognizable across a room.
