The field itself

This is New Bedford'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.

New Bedford Regional Airport Runway Diagram Print

EWB reads as an X. New Bedford Regional has two runways, and the print shows them crossing just above and left of center: 5/23 running lower left to upper right at 5,400 feet by 150 feet, and 14/32 cutting the other way, upper left to lower right, at 5,002 feet by 75 feet. Both are asphalt. The crossing sits high in the frame, which leaves the long southern legs of each runway reaching down toward the corners.

What makes the composition work is the mismatch between the two strips. One is 150 feet wide and one is 75 feet wide, so at print scale the 5/23 bar is visibly heavier than the 14/32 bar, and the X has a dominant stroke instead of two equal lines. The pale gray of the taxiways and aprons gathers along the west and south sides, hangar rows stepping out in small blocks, with one long taxiway loop swinging around the 23 end. Against the flat field color it looks like a piece of hard-edged graphic design that happens to be an airport.

The field was built between 1940 and 1942 and was soon drafted into use as New Bedford Army Air Field for the United States Army Air Forces through World War II, then taken over in 1944 by the Navy as a training post and naval auxiliary air facility. It went back to civilian use after the war. In 1960 Northeast Airlines ran Douglas DC-3s into the airport with nonstop service to New York LaGuardia, Boston and Martha's Vineyard. The current geometry is more recent than the wartime field: runway 5/23 was completely rebuilt in 2015, and in 2018 runway 14/32 was narrowed to 75 feet while keeping its length, which is the width contrast you are looking at on the wall.

Runways, taxiways and apron shapes are plotted from published airport information, and the lower corner carries the identifier, the city and state, the coordinates and the 79 foot elevation. Nothing else competes with the X. The colorway you choose sets the mood, from bright and gallery-quiet to dark and low-light, and the layout stays the same in each.

New Bedford (EWB) print, common questions

How many runways does New Bedford Regional have?

Two, and both appear on the print. Runway 5/23 is 5,400 feet by 150 feet of asphalt, and runway 14/32 is 5,002 feet by 75 feet of asphalt. They cross near the middle of the field, which is what gives the diagram its X shape.

What is the longest runway at EWB?

Runway 5/23, at 5,400 feet long and 150 feet wide. On the print it is the heavier of the two black bars, running from the lower left corner up to the upper right.

What does EWB stand for, and where is the airport?

EWB is the identifier for New Bedford Regional Airport in New Bedford, Massachusetts, in Bristol County. The airport sits about three nautical miles northwest of the city center, at a field elevation of 79 feet, and those coordinates are printed under the code.

How accurate is the layout?

The runway and taxiway geometry follows published runway data for EWB, including the 5,400 foot and 5,002 foot runway lengths and the difference in width between them. This is wall art rather than a navigation document, so fine details may be simplified or omitted. Approach lighting, pavement markings and signage are the sorts of things left out.

What sizes are available?

The diagram is composed to hold up across the standard print sizes, so the runway numbers at the 5, 23, 14 and 32 ends stay legible even at smaller formats. Each print is made to order in the colorway you choose, and ships free within the US.

Is this a good gift for a pilot?

It works best for someone with a specific tie to this field: a Bridgewater State University aviation student, a based aircraft owner, someone who learned to fly off 5/23. The X layout is recognizable to anyone who has flown into New Bedford, and it reads as clean geometry to everyone else.
