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 Asheville'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.

Asheville Regional Airport Runway Diagram Print
Asheville Regional works from a single asphalt runway, 17/35, measuring 8,002 feet long by 150 feet wide, and that one strip carries the whole print. It runs as a dark, steeply pitched diagonal from the upper left of the sheet down to the lower right, numbered 17 at the top end and 35 at the bottom. A pale taxiway loop shadows it the full way down, and the apron, hangars and terminal blocks gather in a soft grey cluster along the east side. Nothing crosses, nothing branches off at an angle. The composition is one line and the quiet around it.
The field sits near the town of Fletcher, North Carolina, about 9 miles south of downtown Asheville, on 900 acres owned by the Greater Asheville Regional Airport Authority. Its elevation is 2,164 feet, printed under the identifier in the lower corner along with the coordinates. The current airport opened in 1961, replacing an older field a few miles away. As of 2026 it is the third busiest airport in North Carolina, which is a lot of movement for a diagram this spare.
Single runway fields make the strongest graphic prints, and this one is a good example: a long dark bar set at an angle sharp enough to feel like motion rather than a ruled line. Hang it where the diagonal has room to breathe and it reads as pure geometry from across a room, then resolves into taxiway fillets and terminal footprints when you step in. In 1948 the earlier Asheville field was served by Douglas DC-3s flying nonstop to Charlotte and Knoxville, and those two cities anchor the same mountain corridor today, so the three prints group naturally on one wall. Whatever colorway you choose, the runway stays the strongest element on the sheet.
Asheville (AVL) print, common questions
How many runways does Asheville Regional have?
One. Runway 17/35 is 8,002 feet long, 150 feet wide, and asphalt. It is the only runway on the field and the only runway on the print.
How high is Asheville Regional?
The field elevation is 2,164 feet, which is printed on the sheet under the AVL identifier. That is high for an eastern commercial airport and reflects the mountain setting west of the Blue Ridge.
Where is the airport?
It sits near the town of Fletcher, North Carolina, roughly 9 miles south of downtown Asheville, on a 900 acre site owned by the Greater Asheville Regional Airport Authority.
What does AVL stand for?
AVL is the airport identifier for Asheville Regional, the code you see on a boarding pass or a bag tag. It is the only code shown on the print.
How accurate is the layout?
The runway, taxiways, apron and building footprints are plotted from published airport data, so the single strip, its 17 and 35 ends, and the parallel taxiway all sit where the published charts put them. It is designed as wall art, not for navigation, and fine details may be simplified or omitted to keep the drawing legible at print size.
Does it work as a gift?
Yes. It suits pilots who have flown into the 2,164 foot field, people who moved away from Asheville, and anyone who likes clean geometric wall art. Sizes and finishes are chosen at checkout, and each print is made to order in the colorway you pick.
