Your fine art print is made to order with pigment inks on heavyweight, 100% cotton Hot Press paper, a 330 gsm sheet with a high color gamut and deep black density. The acid-free, archival-grade paper has a smooth matte surface. Supplied unframed, ready for your own frame.
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. Orders containing only paper prints ship flat, though paper may retain a slight curl; orders with framed or metal pieces ship in separate boxes. Digital downloads are delivered by email, so there is nothing to ship.
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.
Physical products have a 30-day money-back guarantee. Contact us within 30 days of delivery to request a refund; we may require a return before issuing it.
Digital downloads are non-refundable once delivered, except where required by law or where AirportPrints determines that a delivery failure or technical issue was caused by AirportPrints.
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 Watertown'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.

Watertown Regional Airport Runway Diagram Print
Watertown Regional draws as a lopsided cross. Two runways, each 100 feet wide, meet at an angle in the upper third of the print: 12/30 measures 6,898 feet and 17/35 measures 6,893 feet, five feet apart on paper and effectively twins on the wall. Both are concrete. Field elevation is 1,749 feet.
The graphic reward is in where the crossing lands. Runway 12/30 comes in on the diagonal from the upper left, labeled 12 at its northwest end and 30 at the southeast, while 17/35 runs close to straight up and down the sheet. They intersect well toward the north end of the vertical strip, which leaves a long solitary stroke of 17/35 falling through the lower half of the composition with its parallel taxiway shadowing it in gray. Plenty of open ground surrounds both, and the built-up side of the field reads as a tight cluster of gray shapes at the upper left. Watertown opened a new passenger terminal in 2022.
The pavement is newer than the layout. From 2012 to 2018 both runways were overhauled in concrete, replacing worn out asphalt. During 2022 the field logged 12,276 aircraft operations, an average of 34 a day, with 52 aircraft based on site, so this is a working general aviation field northwest of Watertown in Codington County rather than a busy hub. If you are building a South Dakota wall, a Huron print or a Sioux Falls print sits naturally beside this one.
Watertown (ATY) print, common questions
How many runways does ATY have?
Two. Runway 12/30 and runway 17/35 cross each other, and both appear on the print with their end numbers set into the dark strips.
How long are the runways at Watertown Regional?
Runway 12/30 is 6,898 feet by 100 feet and runway 17/35 is 6,893 feet by 100 feet. The five foot difference is why the two strokes look like a matched pair on the sheet. Both surfaces are concrete.
What is the field elevation, and where is ATY?
The field sits at 1,749 feet above sea level, northwest of Watertown in Codington County, South Dakota, at roughly 44.9140 degrees north and 97.1547 degrees west. The elevation is printed in the identifier block at the lower right.
What does ATY mean?
ATY is the three letter identifier for Watertown Regional. It is the code used on the print, on baggage tags and in flight planning for this field.
How closely does the print follow the published layout?
It is plotted from published airport information for cycle 2609, so the crossing angle and the relative lengths of 12/30 and 17/35 follow that data, and the runway ends are labeled 12, 30, 17 and 35 as published. It is wall art before it is a chart: fine details may be simplified or omitted, taxiway and apron edges are cleaned up, and it is not for navigation.
Which size works best, and does it make a good gift?
The layout is simple enough to read small: the two crossing strokes stay legible at compact sizes, while larger sheets give the long southern run of 17/35 room to breathe. Each print is made to order in the colorway you choose, and it lands well with pilots, students and anyone who has flown in or out of Watertown.
