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 Bangor'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.

Bangor International Airport Runway Diagram Print
Bangor International is a single runway field, and the print hands that one strip the whole page. Runway 15/33 measures 11,440 by 200 ft on asphalt, and it cuts the sheet as one long diagonal, the 15 threshold up at the top left and 33 down near the bottom right. The parallel taxiway, its end loops and the apron shapes all gather along one side of that line, so the weight of the drawing sits to the right while the runway holds the diagonal on its own. Elevation reads 192 ft in the label block below the code.
The length has a reason behind it. In 1958 the Air Force built the 11,440 ft runway for the B-52 Stratofortress, then the longest runway on the east side of the Mississippi River. The field opened as Godfrey Field in 1921 and was operated until 1968 as Dow Air Force Base before the city took it on. Regular passenger service to Portland and Boston began in 1931, flown by Boston-Maine Airways.
Bangor sits on the air corridors between Europe and the East Coast of the United States, which makes it a common place for airliners to put down when their plan changes. The print reads that way too: a lot of pavement, one uninterrupted line, very little clutter. Hung on its own it behaves like a graphic rule across the wall, and the diagonal gives a room something most airport layouts cannot, a clean edge running corner to corner instead of a knot of intersecting strips. It works over a desk, in a hallway, or anywhere a long horizontal wall needs one strong angle.
Bangor (BGR) print, common questions
How many runways does Bangor International have?
One. Runway 15/33 is the whole layout, 11,440 by 200 ft with an asphalt surface, and the print draws that single strip on the diagonal rather than a cluster of crossing runways.
How long is the runway, and how high is the field?
The runway is 11,440 ft long and 200 ft wide. Field elevation is 192 ft, and that figure is printed in the label block with the coordinates.
What does BGR mean, and where is the airport?
BGR is the identifier for Bangor International in Bangor, Maine, at roughly 44.8074 degrees north and 68.8281 degrees west. The code is set large at the lower right of the print, with the city and state under it.
Is the diagram accurate to the published layout?
It is plotted from published airport information for Bangor, including runway 15/33 at 11,440 by 200 ft and its orientation across the field. It is a design piece rather than a navigation chart, so fine details may be simplified or omitted. Markings, lighting and signage are the sort of thing that gets left out to keep the line clean.
What sizes can I get?
It comes in a range of sizes and finishes, and in the colorway you choose. The layout is a long diagonal, so it holds up well at larger sizes where the runway can stretch, and it is made to order rather than pulled from stock.
Does it work as a gift?
Yes, particularly for anyone with a Bangor connection, a pilot who has refueled there, or someone who likes a piece of wall art that is factual underneath the design. Free US shipping, and it ships made to order.
