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 Chadron'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.

Chadron Municipal Airport Runway Diagram Print
Chadron Municipal has two runways and they cross, which gives this airport map print a long, lopsided X at its center. Runway 03/21 is the long one, 5998 feet by 100 feet, running lower left to upper right across nearly the full height of the sheet. Runway 12/30 is the shorter strip at 4400 feet by 75 feet, cutting the other way from upper left down to lower right. Both are concrete. The two meet low and left of center rather than in the middle, and that off-balance crossing is what keeps the shape from reading as a tidy symbol.
Field elevation is 3298 feet, which is the kind of number that tells you where you are before the state name does. Magnetic variation is listed as 7E, the small offset between magnetic and geographic north that sets those runway numbers. Below the crossing, a gray taxiway loop does the quiet work of the composition: it leaves the 03 end, swings out past a short row of apron buildings and climbs back to meet pavement near the 30 threshold, closing a soft curve under all that hard black diagonal.
On a wall it works because of the asymmetry. The 03/21 diagonal pulls the eye corner to corner, 12/30 interrupts it, and the taxiways, apron edges and small building blocks sit in a lighter tone so the runways stay the subject rather than competing with the support pavement. Coordinates, the 3298 feet elevation and the CDR identifier sit in the lower right, legible up close and invisible from across the room, so the piece stays graphic at a distance. It hangs fine alone and better in a row, whether that row runs south to Alliance or north across the state line to Rapid City.
Chadron (CDR) print, common questions
How many runways does Chadron Municipal have?
Two, and they intersect. Runway 03/21 measures 5998 feet by 100 feet and runway 12/30 measures 4400 feet by 75 feet. Both are concrete, and the print draws both crossing below the midpoint of the longer strip.
How long is the longest runway at CDR?
5998 feet. That is runway 03/21, at 100 feet wide, the long diagonal that carries most of the composition from the lower left corner toward the upper right.
What is the elevation at Chadron Municipal?
3298 feet. The number is printed in the lower right of the artwork along with the coordinates, 42.8376 degrees north and 103.0954 degrees west.
What does CDR stand for and where is the airport?
CDR is the three letter identifier for Chadron Municipal, in Chadron, Nebraska, in the northwest corner of the state. The print uses that identifier rather than the four letter code so it reads the way pilots and locals say it.
How accurate is the layout?
The diagram is plotted from published airport information, so the runway designators, the relative lengths of 03/21 and 12/30 and the angle at which they cross follow the published runway data. This is artwork rather than a navigation chart, and fine details may be simplified or omitted. Pavement markings, lighting and signage are the usual examples.
What formats and sizes can I get, and does it work as a gift?
It is available as a Fine Art Print, a Framed Fine Art Print, a Glossy Metal Print and a Digital Download, in a range of sizes and in the colorway you choose. Physical pieces are made to order. It reads as a personal gift for anyone with hours logged at CDR, a first solo on 03/21, or a stretch of life spent in this part of Nebraska.
