The field itself

This is Elko'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.

Elko Regional Airport Runway Diagram Print

Elko Regional Airport works two asphalt runways, and the print is built around the difference between them. Runway 06/24 is 7,454 by 150 feet and cuts across the sheet on a long southwest to northeast diagonal. Runway 12/30 is 3,015 by 60 feet, drops in from the northwest, and stops just short of the long runway's northeast end, so the two strips read as a narrow V with its apex in the upper right. The apron and building shapes gather in that corner where they converge. A parallel taxiway runs the length of 06/24 along its northwest side, tied to it by a row of rounded connectors, and that band keeps the main diagonal from reading as a single bare line. Field elevation is 5,140 feet above sea level and magnetic variation is 12E.

The field has been in the airline business almost since there was one. On April 6, 1926 it became the terminus of the first scheduled air mail run in the United States, flown by Varney Air Lines on a route from Pasco, Washington, through Boise, Idaho, and on to Elko. By 1928 that mail route had been redirected toward Salt Lake City, and Elko was one of ten stops on a new San Francisco to Chicago run flown by Boeing Air Transport. Both carriers were predecessors of United Air Lines. The names changed about as often as the routes: Elko Airport at first, Keddie Field by 1935, Elko Municipal Airport by 1947, and Elko Regional Airport by the 2000s. In 1975 the field was also named J.C. Harris Field for Jess C. Harris, an Elko sheriff known as the Flying Sheriff.

As wall art the layout is left plain. Runway designators, lengths and widths follow the published figures, and taxiways and apron edges are reduced to flat geometry over the ground tone you choose, with the coordinates and the 5,140 foot elevation set small in the margin. The airport covers 700 acres, so the whole field sits inside the frame with room around it, and the open ground between the two runways stays part of the composition rather than something to fill. This is original wall art composed from published airport information and available field depictions, printed to order, and it reads from across a room without giving up the smaller linework close in.

Elko (EKO) print, common questions

How many runways does Elko Regional Airport have?

Two, both asphalt. Runway 06/24 is 7,454 by 150 feet and runway 12/30 is 3,015 by 60 feet. On the print the short runway comes in from the northwest and ends just short of the long one, which is what gives the layout its V shape.

What is the longest runway at EKO, and how high is the field?

The longest is runway 06/24 at 7,454 feet. Field elevation is 5,140 feet above sea level, high enough that it is worth noting, and that figure is printed in the margin.

What does EKO stand for and where is the airport?

EKO is the IATA code for Elko Regional Airport, about a mile west of downtown Elko in Elko County, Nevada, at roughly 40.82 north, 115.79 west.

Why is it called J.C. Harris Field?

The airport was given that name in 1975 for Jess C. Harris, a sheriff from Elko who was known as the Flying Sheriff. The older names stack up behind it: Elko Airport, then Keddie Field by 1935, then Elko Municipal Airport by 1947.

Is the diagram accurate to the real airport?

Runway designators, lengths and widths follow the published figures for the field, and the angle between the two runways is drawn from the airport's published layout. It is original wall art, not a chart: fine details may be simplified or omitted, including minor taxiway markings, signage and small structures, and it is not for navigation.

What sizes are available, and does it work as a gift?

Several sizes and finishes, made to order, on the ground tone you pick at checkout. It lands well with anyone who has flown into Elko, spent working days in the high desert of northern Nevada, or has family ties to the county.
