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.

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 Utqiagvik'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.

Wiley Post-Will Rogers Memorial Airport Runway Diagram Print
BRW is a one runway field, and the print shows it that way: a single dark strip laid straight across the sheet, numbered 8 at the left end and 26 at the right. The published dimensions are 7,100 ft by 150 ft, asphalt, designated 08/26. That length is what gives the composition its proportion. The strip runs nearly the full width of the artwork, thin and uninterrupted, with rounded pads at both ends.
Above the runway sits the pale grey pavement: a long taxiway that parallels the strip for most of its run, drops down at each end to meet it, and sends one diagonal connector cutting through the open middle. That diagonal is the piece of the drawing that keeps it from reading as a plain rule across a page. Small blocks of building and apron structure sit along the upper edge, a cluster of them toward the left and a pair standing alone near the right. The corner block carries BRW, Utqiagvik, Alaska, the coordinates and ELEV 49 FT.
The airport is public and is owned by the Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities. Its name honors American humorist Will Rogers and aviator Wiley Post, both of whom died in a 1935 airplane crash. The Nome print can hang beside this one. On a wall, this layout does what a single strip field does best: it hangs quiet, horizontal and legible from across a room, and it rewards a closer look with the taxiway geometry nobody notices from a seat.
Utqiagvik (BRW) print, common questions
How many runways does BRW have, and how long are they?
One runway, 08/26, measuring 7,100 ft long and 150 ft wide. The surface is asphalt. That single strip is the whole runway layout in the artwork.
What does BRW stand for, and where is the airport?
BRW is the identifier for Wiley Post-Will Rogers Memorial, in Utqiagvik, Alaska. The identifier is printed large in the lower corner of the artwork, with the city and state beneath it.
What is the field elevation?
49 ft. It is set in the corner block of the print as ELEV 49 FT, below the coordinates 71.2849 N, 156.7686 W.
How accurate is the drawing?
The runway, taxiways and apron are plotted from published airport information, so the single 08/26 strip, the parallel taxiway and the diagonal connector sit where the published runway data puts them. This is a piece of artwork, not a navigation chart, and fine details may be simplified or omitted. Pavement markings, lighting and signage fall into that category.
What formats and finishes can I get this in?
Four ways to own it: a Fine Art Print, the same print supplied framed, a Glossy Metal Print, and a Digital Download. The physical versions are produced once you order, and the digital version is a file rather than an object. Sizes and surface options sit with the finish you select.
Does this work as a gift?
Yes, particularly for anyone with a tie to Utqiagvik or to BRW itself. It is specific enough to mean something to the right person, and the colorway you choose lets you match it to the room it is going into.
