Materials
Fine Art Print: pigment giclée printing on heavyweight 330 gsm (17 mil), 100% cotton Hot Press paper, on regularly calibrated giclée printers. The paper is acid-free and archival-grade, with a smooth matte surface and the high color gamut and black density that let a dark ground and fine linework keep their depth. Supplied unframed, with no added white margin, ready for your own frame.
Framed Fine Art Print: the same cotton fine art paper in a 1.25 inch solid wood frame. A white, acid-free, 4-ply mat with a 45-degree bevel and optical-grade, shatter-resistant clear acrylic (safer to ship than glass) are included. The print is mounted to foam core for a flat presentation, with a kraft paper dust cover and installed hanging wire on the back.
Glossy Metal Print: the image is transferred by dye sublimation into polymer-coated aluminum with a glossy white base. The 1.14 mm panel has a scratch- and water-resistant surface, with a hidden inset mount that positions it about 3/4 inch off the wall. Display indoors, away from direct sunlight.
Digital Download: a high-resolution JPEG for personal, non-commercial use. No physical paper, frame, or metal panel is included.
Dimensions
Fine Art Print: 8 x 10, 16 x 20, and 24 x 30 inches.
Framed Fine Art Print: 8 x 10, 16 x 20, and 24 x 30 inches, measured across the mat and acrylic area inside the frame. The mat sits within that area, so the visible image is about 6 x 8, 12 x 16, or 18 x 24 inches. The outside frame is larger than the listed size.
Glossy Metal Print: 8 x 10, 16 x 20, and 24 x 30 inches. During sublimation, 1/8 to 1/4 inch of the artwork may be cropped, so the printed edge can differ slightly from the preview.
Digital Download: a 7200 x 9000 pixel JPEG at 300 dpi for 24 x 30 inch printing. A digital add-on instead matches the selected physical size: 8 x 10, 16 x 20, or 24 x 30 inches at 300 dpi.
Made like something you keep.
The field itself
This is Nantucket'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.

Nantucket Memorial Airport Runway Diagram Print
Nantucket Memorial works on paper because both of its runways are long enough to read as graphics: 6/24 at 6,303 feet by 150 feet, and 15/33 at 4,500 feet by 100 feet, both asphalt. In the print they cross high on the sheet, near the 24 end and near the 15 end, so the two black strips splay down and out from a junction pinned close to the upper edge. The longer strip climbs from the lower left to the upper right. The shorter one falls away from the same junction toward the lower right and finishes at 33. The result is a lopsided X with one very short arm, an off center shape that gives the composition somewhere to lean.
The rest of the sheet stays quiet. Taxiways, the apron and the terminal buildings sit in soft gray along the north side of 6/24, clustered at the top of the frame, and a single gray taxiway sweeps out to the 33 end across open ground. Only the runways carry black, labeled 6, 24, 15 and 33 as published. Published airport information for cycle 2609 (effective 2026-08-06) guides the relative runway geometry, drawn to scale, with the identifier ACK, the city line, the coordinates and an elevation of 47 feet set low in the right margin.
The field started as farmland. In the late 1930s Leslie Holm, a farmer in Nobadeer, plowed and smoothed cornfields with the help of David Raub, a former test pilot living on the island, and the Town of Nantucket began using the property as an airfield. The U.S. Navy took the airport over during World War II and ran it as Naval Auxiliary Air Facility Nantucket, then returned it to the town in 1946, when it was dedicated as Nantucket Memorial Airport to honor Nantucket people who served and died in the war. In 2009 the terminal was updated and expanded beyond the original 1950s facility. Hang this one beside a Boston or Providence print and the contrast does the talking: a busy mainland grid next to an island field with two strips and a lot of open ground.
Nantucket (ACK) print, common questions
How many runways does ACK have, and how long are they?
Two. Runway 6/24 is 6,303 feet by 150 feet and runway 15/33 is 4,500 feet by 100 feet, both asphalt. Both appear in the print, crossing near the top of the sheet.
What is the longest runway at Nantucket Memorial?
Runway 6/24, at 6,303 feet long and 150 feet wide. It is the strip running from the lower left of the print up to the right, ending at the 24 marker.
Where is ACK, and how high is the field?
Nantucket Memorial sits on the south side of the island of Nantucket, Massachusetts, southeast of the town center, and it is owned by the Town of Nantucket. Field elevation is 47 feet, printed in the margin along with the coordinates.
How closely does the print follow the published layout?
Runway designators, lengths, widths and relative positions come from published airport information for cycle 2609 (effective 2026-08-06), and the layout is drawn to scale from it. It is wall art rather than a navigation chart, so fine details such as markings, lighting, signage and minor pavement may be simplified or omitted.
What sizes are available?
Several sizes, from a desk-scale piece up to a statement print, each made to order in the colorway you choose. The wide, low-angle X of 6/24 and 15/33 holds up small, and the open ground around the 33 end gives the larger sizes room to breathe.
Is this a good gift for someone connected to Nantucket?
It works for pilots, summer regulars and anyone who has flown in over the water to land here. The layout is recognizable at a glance to people who know the field, and the margin lines name the airport, the island and the elevation for people who do not.
