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.

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 Battle Mountain'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.

Battle Mountain Airport Runway Diagram Print
Battle Mountain Airport is a two runway field, and the print is essentially one long X: runway 04/22 at 7,300 by 150 feet and runway 13/31 at 7,299 by 100 feet, a single foot apart in length. The two strips cross above the middle of the sheet rather than at its center, so the four arms reach out to the corners at unequal lengths, and the leg running up to the 13 threshold is the shortest of them. Field elevation is 4,536 feet above sea level and magnetic variation is 13E, so the plotted headings sit noticeably off true north.
The field was built by the United States Army Air Forces about 1942 as the Battle Mountain Flight Strip, an emergency landing airfield for military aircraft on training flights out of the Reno Army Air Base, and it was also designated an intermediate field where civil aircraft could put down in an emergency. It closed after World War II and the War Assets Administration turned it over for local government use. The airport covers 1,066 acres, is owned by Lander County and operated by the Battle Mountain Airport Authority, and carries the second name Lander County Airport. As of 2008 the Bureau of Land Management ran the Battle Mountain Air Attack Base at the field, providing air tanker support for fire suppression in northern Nevada.
On the sheet, a single taxiway traces the top of the field between the two upper thresholds, widening into an apron with a row of small building blocks set along it, and one stem drops from that apron down toward the runway intersection. At the far ends, short hooked turnarounds close off the 4 and 31 thresholds and give the long arms somewhere to stop. Runway designators, lengths and widths follow the published figures, and taxiways and apron edges are reduced to flat geometry over the ground tone you choose. This is original wall art composed from published airport information and available field depictions, printed to order, and from across a room it reads as one clean crossing of lines with a lot of quiet ground around it.
Battle Mountain (BAM) print, common questions
How many runways does Battle Mountain Airport have?
Two, and they cross. Runway 04/22 is 7,300 by 150 feet and runway 13/31 is 7,299 by 100 feet. Both are asphalt, and their crossing is the shape the whole print is built around.
What is the longest runway at BAM, and how high is the field?
Runway 04/22 at 7,300 feet is the longer of the two, by a single foot. Field elevation is 4,536 feet above sea level, set in the margin of the print below the coordinates.
What does BAM stand for and where is the airport?
BAM is the IATA code for Battle Mountain Airport, also known as Lander County Airport, 3 miles southeast of Battle Mountain in Lander County, Nevada, at roughly 40.60 north, 116.87 west.
Is the diagram accurate to the real airport?
Runway designators, lengths, widths and the angle between the two runways come from published airport information for the field. 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 several sizes and finishes, on the ground tone you pick at checkout. It lands well with anyone who has stopped here on the long leg across northern Nevada, flown with the air tanker crews, or grown up in Lander County.
