Supplied unframed, with no added white margin, ready for your own frame.

Dimensions

Fine Art Print: 8 x 10, 16 x 20, and 24 x 30 inches.

Made like something you keep.

The field itself

This is Albuquerque'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.

Double Eagle II Airport Runway Diagram Print

Double Eagle II Airport works two asphalt runways that never touch, and that separation is what gives the print its shape. Runway 04/22 is 7,398 by 100 feet and crosses the sheet as one long diagonal, climbing from the lower left toward the northeast. Runway 17/35 is 5,983 by 100 feet and stands off to the east as a straight north to south bar. Their north ends stop close to each other near the top of the frame without meeting, so the two strips open away from each other in a wide V and the ground between them does as much work in the composition as the pavement. Field elevation is 5,837 feet above sea level, and magnetic variation is 11E.

The field sits on the far west side of Albuquerque, seven miles northwest of the central business district in Bernalillo County, and is owned by the City of Albuquerque. Construction began in 1982, and the name comes from the Double Eagle II balloon, the first balloon to cross the Atlantic Ocean, flown by Ben Abruzzo, Maxie Anderson and Larry Newman. It was built as a general aviation reliever to take over from several smaller airports around the city that have since closed, and it is the city's second airport after Albuquerque International Sunport. In 2018 the field logged 78,860 aircraft operations, an average of 216 a day.

As art, the layout is left to speak plainly. Runway designators, lengths and widths follow the published figures, taxiways and apron edges are reduced to flat geometry over the ground tone you choose, and the hangar and ramp blocks gather in one group northwest of the runway 22 threshold. The airport covers 4,257 acres, which is why the linework sits with room around it instead of crowding the frame. This is original wall art composed from published airport information and available field depictions rather than a navigation document, printed to order, and it hangs well beside another New Mexico field such as Roswell.

Albuquerque (AEG) print, common questions

How many runways does Double Eagle II Airport have?

Two, and they do not intersect. Runway 04/22 is 7,398 by 100 feet and runway 17/35 is 5,983 by 100 feet. Both are asphalt, and the print keeps the open angle between them.

What is the longest runway at AEG, and how high is the field?

Runway 04/22 at 7,398 feet is the longer of the two. Field elevation is 5,837 feet above sea level, high enough that density altitude is part of flying here, and that elevation is set in the margin of the print.

What does AEG stand for and where is the airport?

AEG is the three letter identifier for Double Eagle II Airport, seven miles northwest of the central business district of Albuquerque in Bernalillo County, New Mexico, at roughly 35.14 north, 106.80 west. The name honors the Double Eagle II balloon, the first balloon to cross the Atlantic Ocean.

Is the diagram accurate to the real airport?

Runway designators, lengths and widths follow the published figures for the field, and the angle between 04/22 and 17/35 is drawn from the airport's published layout. It is original wall art, not a chart: fine details may be simplified or omitted, including minor taxiway markings, signage and small structures, and it is not for navigation.

What sizes can I get, and does this work as a gift?

Each print is made to order in a range of sizes and finishes, on a ground tone you select at checkout. It suits anyone who trained on the west mesa, keeps an aircraft at Double Eagle II, or follows the balloon flight the airport is named for.
