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 Athens'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.

Athens/Ben Epps Airport Runway Diagram Print
Two asphalt runways carry this print: 9/27 at 6,122 by 100 feet, and 2/20 at 3,995 by 100 feet. In the rendering the long 9/27 runs nearly level across the sheet, and 2/20 cuts through it steeply from lower left to upper right, meeting it well over toward the 27 end. The result is a lopsided cross rather than a tidy X, with the crossing pushed high and right and a wide, quiet stretch of paper left open under the 9 threshold. That imbalance is the whole reason the layout holds a wall.
Athens/Ben Epps is a county-owned, public-use field about three nautical miles east of the central business district of Athens, in Clarke County. It carries the name of Ben T. Epps, the first aviator in the state of Georgia, who opened the airport in 1917. Scheduled airline flights to Charlotte ran until 2008. In 2015 a runway extension project was completed here to accept larger planes, primarily for use by the University of Georgia, which is the kind of history a small field wears quietly.
Athens sits within 175 miles of Atlanta, close enough that most of what happens at this field happens without an airline schedule. The print is plotted from published airport information: designators at all four thresholds, coordinates and the 812 foot field elevation set in the lower right under the AHN wordmark, and the taxiways, apron and the hangar and terminal cluster north of the long runway held in a lighter grey so the runways stay the loudest marks on the page. Printed to order, it reads well over a desk or in a hallway, and the colorway you choose decides how hard that contrast lands.
Athens (AHN) print, common questions
How many runways does Athens/Ben Epps have?
Two, both asphalt. Runway 9/27 measures 6,122 by 100 feet and runway 2/20 measures 3,995 by 100 feet. They intersect, and the print shows that intersection sitting toward the upper right of the sheet rather than in the middle.
How long is the longest runway at AHN?
6,122 feet. That is runway 9/27, the near-horizontal line that spans the width of the print, and at 100 feet wide it is the same width as the shorter 2/20.
Where is AHN and how high is the field?
Athens, Georgia, at roughly 33.9486 N, 83.3259 W, about three nautical miles east of downtown Athens in Clarke County. Field elevation is 812 feet, and that figure is printed under the coordinates.
What does the code AHN mean?
AHN is the three letter identifier for Athens/Ben Epps in Athens, Georgia, and it is the only code on the print. The airport name itself comes from Ben T. Epps, who opened the field in 1917.
How closely does the diagram follow the published layout?
Runway designators, relative lengths and the angle at which 2/20 crosses 9/27 are plotted from published airport information for the current charting cycle. It is wall art, not a navigation document: fine details are simplified or omitted, markings and minor pavement are generalized, and it should never be used for flying.
What sizes can I get, and does it work as a gift?
It comes in a range of standard frame-friendly sizes, printed to order, and the colorway you choose sets the tone from bright and graphic to dark and quiet. Free US shipping. For anyone who trained, based an aircraft or spent Saturdays at Athens, the crossed runways are recognizable at a glance.
