Shipping and Returns
Physical prints are made to order in 2 to 3 business days; shipping time is added on top and varies by your location and the method you choose. Standard shipping is free across the US.

The Digital Download is a JPEG at 300 dpi, sized for 24 by 30 inches. The digital add-on matches the selected physical print size at 300 dpi. Download links arrive by email and stay active for 30 days; save the file within that time and keep it for personal, non-commercial use. No physical item is shipped.

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 Ann Arbor'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.

Ann Arbor Municipal Airport Runway Diagram Print
Ann Arbor Municipal draws as an X. Two runways cross at a shallow angle below the main ramp, and that single intersection carries the whole composition: runway 06/24 runs from lower left to upper right as a solid dark bar, and runway 12/30 runs from upper left to lower right as a paler, stippled band. The stipple is not decoration. 12/30 is turf, 2,750 ft long and 110 ft wide, while 06/24 is concrete at 3,505 ft by 75 ft, so the shorter runway on this field is also the broader one. On the wall you read that contrast before you read any label.
The rest of the field is quiet by comparison, which is what makes the crossing work. A taxiway traces a long parallel line beside 06/24 and then bends up toward the buildings, hangar rows sit in two clusters at the top of the sheet with a third strung out along the lower right, and everything else is open ground. Elevation is 839 ft, the published magnetic variation is 5W, and the coordinates printed under the identifier place the field at 42.2229 N, 83.7457 W. Two runways, two textures, one angle: a small field that does not need to be dressed up.
This is a compact layout, so it hangs well at modest size and still holds its shape across a room. The geometry is plotted from published airport data rather than styled into a generic runway graphic, and the runway numbers 06, 24, 12 and 30 stay legible at the ends of each strip. If your map wall already has Detroit or Jackson on it, ARB slots in between them as the smaller, sharper shape, and the colorway you choose sets whether the turf band reads as soft grain or as a ghost line under the paved runway.
Ann Arbor (ARB) print, common questions
How many runways does Ann Arbor Municipal have?
Two. Runway 06/24 is the paved one at 3,505 ft by 75 ft with a concrete surface, and runway 12/30 is turf at 2,750 ft by 110 ft. In the print they cross each other, which is the shape that defines the piece.
What is the longest runway at ARB?
Runway 06/24 at 3,505 ft, and it is the field's only paved runway. It appears on the print as the dark bar running from lower left to upper right, numbered 6 at one end and 24 at the other.
Where is ARB and how high is the field?
Ann Arbor Municipal serves Ann Arbor, Michigan, at 42.2229 N, 83.7457 W, with a field elevation of 839 ft. The coordinates and the elevation are both printed in the caption block below the identifier.
What does ARB mean on the print?
ARB is the identifier for Ann Arbor Municipal, and it is the large type in the lower right corner. The city and state sit under it, so the piece is readable to someone who has never flown into the field.
How closely does the artwork follow the published layout?
The runways, taxiways and building footprints are plotted from published airport information for the current data cycle, so the crossing angle and the relative runway lengths follow that source. It is a designed piece rather than a navigation chart, and fine details may be simplified or omitted. Surface markings, lighting and signage are the kinds of things that get pared back.
Does this work as a gift for a pilot who trained here?
It does, because the crossing runways make ARB recognizable at a glance to anyone who has flown the pattern. Choose Fine Art Print, Framed Fine Art Print or Glossy Metal Print for a physical piece made to order, or Digital Download if you want the file to print locally.
