The field itself

This is Biloxi'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

Keesler AFB Runway Diagram Print

Keesler AFB (BIX) is a one runway field, and the print is built around that single strip. Runway 04/22 measures 7,630 feet long by 150 feet wide, with a published surface code of PEM, and it runs the full height of the composition as one uninterrupted diagonal from the 04 threshold at lower left up to 22 at upper right. Field elevation is 33 feet, which is about as close to sea level as a coastal airport gets, and the coordinates printed under the identifier are 30.4104 N, 88.9244 W. Published magnetic variation here is 2W.

What makes the layout work as a wall piece is the contrast between that one hard line and everything gathered beside it. The runway is drawn as a solid dark bar, corner to corner. To its northeast side, the taxiways and apron spread out in a paler tone, with one taxiway crossing the runway centerline low in the frame and a long parallel spine running up toward the 22 end. Building footprints sit a shade darker again, stacked in a loose column along the ramp. Three weights of gray, one strong angle, and a lot of open paper: the eye follows the runway first and finds the rest on the second look.

A small field earns a quiet print. There is no second runway to argue with the first here, no X and no V, so the geometry stays legible from across a room and still rewards a close read of the threshold numbers. It hangs well next to other Mississippi Gulf Coast fields if you want a set, whether that is Gulfport a short drive west or Pascagoula on the other side of the bay. The layout is plotted from published airport information, and the identifier, city, coordinates and elevation are set in the lower corner in the colorway you choose.

Biloxi (BIX) print, common questions

How many runways does Keesler AFB have?

One. Runway 04/22 is the only runway in the published data, and the print shows it as a single diagonal strip with the taxiways and apron alongside.

How long is the runway at BIX?

7,630 feet long and 150 feet wide. The published surface code is PEM. That single measurement drives the proportions of the whole composition.

Where is BIX and what is the code?

BIX is the identifier for Keesler AFB at Biloxi, Mississippi, on the Gulf Coast at 30.4104 N, 88.9244 W. Field elevation is 33 feet, and published magnetic variation is 2W.

How accurate is the artwork?

Runway and taxiway geometry is plotted from published airport data, so the angle, the relative length and the position of 04/22 against the apron all follow the source. It is a design piece rather than a navigation document, and fine details may be simplified or omitted. Pavement markings, lighting and signage are examples of what gets left out.

What sizes and finishes can I get?

Choose Fine Art Print, Framed Fine Art Print or Glossy Metal Print, each made to order in a range of sizes, or take the Digital Download as a file. Larger sizes give the apron detail and the threshold numbers more room to breathe.

Does this work as a gift?

Yes, particularly for anyone with a Biloxi connection: trained there, stationed there, or just grew up under the approach. The identifier and coordinates in the corner make it read as a specific place rather than generic aviation decor.
