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.

Dimensions

Fine Art Print: 8 x 10, 16 x 20, and 24 x 30 inches.

Made like something you keep.

The field itself

This is Del Rio'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.

Laughlin AFB Runway Diagram Print

Laughlin AFB is a three runway field, and all three sit parallel on the same northwest to southeast diagonal. The print shows them as a tight stack of dark bars over Del Rio, Texas, with no crossing strip anywhere on the sheet. Nothing intersects, nothing fans out. What you get is one direction, stated three times.

The lengths do the work. The center strip, 13C/31C, is the longest at 8852 feet. Beside it runs 13L/31R at 8316 feet, and closest to the ramp is 13R/31L at 6571 feet, which stops well short of the other two and gives the lower edge of the stack its stepped ending. All three are drawn at the published width of 150 feet, so the bars read at equal weight and the eye tracks the difference in reach rather than thickness. Two of the runways are published with a PEM surface, the third with asphalt. The field elevation, 1082 feet, is set in the corner block under the identifier.

On a wall, this one behaves like a graphic rather than a map. Three long diagonals cut corner to corner across the sheet, the gray taxiway and apron structure gathers along their southwest flank, and the rest of the composition is open ground. It hangs well in a row with other Texas fields: put it next to the tangled multi-direction layout of San Antonio and the contrast is the whole point, since this field commits to one heading and that one holds. Pilots trained out of Del Rio, anyone who has flown the border run past Laredo, or a person who just likes clean parallel lines all read it the same way.

Del Rio (DLF) print, common questions

How many runways does Laughlin AFB have, and how long are they?

Three. The longest is 13C/31C at 8852 feet, then 13L/31R at 8316 feet, then 13R/31L at 6571 feet. All three are published at 150 feet wide, and all three appear on the print.

Where is DLF, and what is the field elevation?

DLF is Laughlin AFB at Del Rio, Texas, sitting at 1082 feet of elevation. The coordinates and the elevation are printed in the lower corner block alongside the identifier.

What do DLF and KDLF mean?

DLF is the identifier for this field, and KDLF is its four letter ICAO form. The artwork carries DLF, set large under the diagram.

How closely does the artwork follow the published layout?

The runways are plotted from published runway data, so the parallel arrangement, the relative lengths and the orientation of the field all follow the current published information. This is artwork built for a wall, not a navigation document, and fine details may be simplified or omitted. Pavement markings, lighting and signage are examples of what gets left out.

What formats does this come in?

Fine Art Print, Framed Fine Art Print, Glossy Metal Print and Digital Download, in a range of sizes. The physical pieces are made to order, and the download is a file you keep.

Is this a good gift for someone connected to Laughlin?

It works for anyone with time at the field: student pilots, instructors, families who lived at Del Rio. The three parallel strips are instantly recognizable to them and still read as clean geometry to everyone else in the room.
