Description
A runway diagram map print of Bradley International Airport (BDL), made from the airport's own layout for the place it holds in your life. Choose your colorway and your format: a fine art giclée print on cotton paper, a framed fine art print, a glossy metal print or a digital download.
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 Windsor Locks'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.

Bradley International Airport Runway Diagram Print
Bradley International draws as a hard X. The print plots two runways from published airport information: 06/24 at 9,510 by 200 feet running lower left to upper right, and 15/33 at 6,847 by 150 feet cutting across it from upper left to lower right. They meet just off center, and that single crossing point is what makes the composition work on a wall. Field elevation is 173 feet, noted under the identifier along with the coordinates.
Around the runways, the taxiway network and apron shapes fill in the rest of the frame in a lighter tone, so the two runway strips stay dominant no matter which colorway you choose. The ramp mass gathers toward the lower right and the smaller hangar clusters sit along the eastern edge, which gives the X an asymmetry that keeps it from feeling like a plain graphic. Windsor Locks sits about halfway between Hartford, Connecticut, and Springfield, Massachusetts, and the airport property extends into East Granby and Suffield.
The field takes its name from Lt. Eugene M. Bradley, a 24-year-old pilot who died in 1941 when his P-40 crashed during a dogfight training drill. Civilian operations began in 1947, and the New England Air Museum now sits next door. If you have flown in over the Connecticut River valley, taxied for 24, or spent a career on this ramp, the layout is recognizable at a glance from across a room.
Windsor Locks (BDL) print, common questions
How many runways does BDL have, and how do they sit?
Two. Runway 06/24 and runway 15/33 cross each other, which is why the print reads as an X rather than a set of parallel strips.
How long are the runways at Bradley International?
Runway 06/24 is 9,510 by 200 feet and runway 15/33 is 6,847 by 150 feet. Both are asphalt, and both appear at their published relative lengths in the print.
Where is BDL, and what is the elevation?
Bradley International is in Windsor Locks, Connecticut, roughly midway between Hartford, Connecticut, and Springfield, Massachusetts. Field elevation is 173 feet, printed under the identifier with the coordinates.
How accurate is the diagram?
The runway designators, relative lengths, widths and crossing angle are plotted from published runway data for the airport. It is a print, not a chart, so fine details may be simplified or omitted: some pavement edges, markings, minor structures and signage are left out for legibility at print size.
What sizes and finishes are available?
Several standard sizes, printed to order, as a Fine Art Print, Framed Fine Art Print or Glossy Metal Print (Digital Download available separately). The BDL layout is squarish, so the X sits comfortably in a portrait frame at any of the sizes.
Is this a good gift for someone connected to Bradley?
Yes, especially for pilots, controllers, ramp and maintenance crews, or anyone who grew up under the approach to 06. Pick the colorway that suits the room it is going into, and it ships free within the US.
