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 Chico'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.

Chico Regional Airport Runway Diagram Print
Chico Regional is a two runway field, and both strips run parallel on the same long diagonal, which is the line this print is built on. Runway 13L/31R is the long one at 6,724 feet by 150 feet, asphalt. Runway 13R/31L runs beside it at 3,000 feet by 60 feet, also asphalt. Published airport information guides the relative runway geometry, so the shorter strip stays visibly shorter and narrower instead of being evened out for the sake of balance.
Apron, taxiway loops and hangar blocks gather along one side of the long runway in a paler gray, which lets the two dark runway bars carry the image. The rest of the sheet stays open. Field elevation of 240 feet and the coordinates sit in the lower corner under the letters CIC, so the piece works as a graphic first and reads as an airport diagram second. The magnetic variation of 16E is part of why those numbers land on 13 and 31 rather than on some tidier pair.
The shape on the wall has a long back story. The City of Chico built a small airport north of town in the late 1930s, and in 1941 the city leased more than a thousand acres to the Army, which added runways, aprons, service roads and about 140 buildings. In 1942 the field opened as the Chico Army Flying School. Chico Air Attack Base was established at the field in 1969 with three retardant loading stations. From 1982 to 1984, Pacific Express, an airline based in Chico, flew a daily departure that could stop in Sacramento on its way to San Francisco. In 2022 the city council voted to change the name from Chico Municipal to Chico Regional.
Chico (CIC) print, common questions
How many runways does Chico Regional have?
Two, and they are parallel. Runway 13L/31R measures 6,724 feet by 150 feet on asphalt, and Runway 13R/31L measures 3,000 feet by 60 feet, also asphalt. Both appear on the print, labeled at their ends.
How long is the longest runway at CIC, and how high is the field?
The longest runway is 6,724 feet, which is 13L/31R. Field elevation is 240 feet, printed in the lower corner of the sheet with the coordinates.
Where is CIC, and what does the code mean?
CIC is the identifier for Chico Regional, about four miles north of Chico in Butte County, California, near 39.7954 N, 121.8584 W. The code appears large at the bottom of the print, with the city and state below it.
Is the print accurate to the published layout?
It is plotted from published airport information, so the two parallel runways, the apron and the taxiway network are drawn in their published relative positions and proportions. It is a design piece rather than a navigation chart, so fine details may be simplified or omitted. Runway markings, lighting and signage are not shown.
What sizes can I get?
The diagram is composed to hold up across the standard sizes we offer, from a desk-scale piece to a large statement panel, and it is made to order in the colorway you choose. The long diagonal reads well in a vertical frame, which is how the artwork is set.
Does this work as a gift?
It suits anyone with a tie to Chico: a pilot who trained on 13R/31L, a Butte County local, a Northgate or air attack base crew member, or a family who has watched aircraft cross that long diagonal. It stays legible as a graphic even for someone who has never read an airport diagram.
