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.

Dimensions

Fine Art Print: 8 x 10, 16 x 20, and 24 x 30 inches.

Made like something you keep.

The field itself

This is Blacksburg'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.

Virginia Tech/Montgomery Executive Airport Runway Diagram Print

BCB is a one runway field, and the print says so plainly: runway 13/31, 5,501 ft long and 100 ft wide, asphalt, drawn as a single dark bar running corner to corner across the sheet. The 13 threshold sits high on the left, the 31 threshold low on the right, each end carrying its number in a small block. Nothing else competes with that line, which is why the composition works at a distance.

The supporting geometry is what gives the drawing its depth. A taxiway shadows the runway along its lower side for the full length, closing into loops at both ends and joining the pavement with curved connectors near the middle and again toward 31. Down near the 31 end the apron widens into a cluster of ramp shapes and building outlines, the one dense area in an otherwise open field. A short stub reaches up to a small pad above the runway. Set against the empty margins, the diagonal reads as a clean piece of graphic design that happens to be a working layout, and the caption block carries the identifier, Blacksburg, Virginia, the coordinates and the field elevation of 2119 ft.

Because the layout is one strong diagonal, this one hangs well in a narrow space where a busier field would turn to noise. It is offered as a Fine Art Print, a Framed Fine Art Print, a Glossy Metal Print and a Digital Download, and the line work holds its weight in whichever colorway you choose. The Roanoke print can hang beside this one.

Blacksburg (BCB) print, common questions

How many runways does BCB have?

One. Runway 13/31 measures 5,501 ft long by 100 ft wide with an asphalt surface, and it is the single runway drawn on the print.

How high is the field at Virginia Tech/Montgomery Executive?

The field elevation is 2119 ft, and that figure is printed in the caption block under the identifier.

What does BCB refer to?

BCB is the identifier for Virginia Tech/Montgomery Executive in Blacksburg, Virginia. It is set large in the lower corner of the artwork, with the city and state beneath it.

How closely does the artwork follow the published layout?

Runway 13/31, the taxiway that parallels it and the apron near the 31 end are all plotted from published runway data, so the proportions and the angle of the diagonal follow the published figures. This is a design piece, and fine details may be simplified or omitted. Surface markings and lighting are the kind of thing that drops out at wall scale.

Which formats and sizes are available?

Choose a Fine Art Print, a Framed Fine Art Print, a Glossy Metal Print or a Digital Download, in a range of sizes. Physical formats are produced to order once you pick a size and colorway; the download is a file.

Does this work as a gift?

It suits anyone with a tie to BCB: a student, an instructor, someone who learned to fly off 13/31 or keeps an aircraft on that apron. The single diagonal is legible from across a room, so it reads as artwork first and as a record of the field second.
