The field itself

This is Fort Bragg'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

Simmons AAF Runway Diagram Print

Simmons AAF at Fort Bragg, North Carolina runs on a single runway: 10/28, 4,121 feet long and 100 feet wide, asphalt, on a field sitting 243 feet above sea level. That one strip is the whole story of the diagram, and it is the reason this print reads the way it does. There is no X, no V, no second runway angling off somewhere. One dark bar, drawn almost level, holds the middle of the sheet.

The interest comes from what surrounds it. Above the runway sit long pale taxiway loops and a wide apron, with clusters of small building blocks packed along the top edge. Below and to the left, a row of angled parking stubs steps down into a broad ramp that tails off toward the lower corner, so the gray shapes lean one way while the runway holds flat. The thresholds are numbered where you expect them, 10 at the left end of the bar and 28 at the right. At a distance you read a single strong horizontal line with soft gray weight gathered around it, which is an easy thing to live with on a wall.

The lower corner carries the identifier FBG set large, with the coordinates and field elevation underneath in small type, and the rest of the sheet stays open in the colorway you choose. It suits a small field: honest, uncrowded, no invented detail. Anyone who has flown or worked in this part of North Carolina, closer to Fayetteville than to Raleigh, will recognize the shape of the ramp before they read the letters.

Fort Bragg (FBG) print, common questions

How long is the runway at Simmons AAF?

Runway 10/28 is 4,121 feet long and 100 feet wide, with an asphalt surface. It is the only runway at the field, and it is the single dark bar you see across the middle of the print.

What does FBG stand for?

FBG is the identifier for Simmons AAF at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. It is the code set large in the lower corner of the print, above the coordinates and the field elevation. The artwork uses that identifier rather than any other code for the airport.

How high is the field?

Field elevation is 243 feet, and that figure is printed in small type under the coordinates in the corner block. Magnetic variation at the field is 9W, which is why the runway numbers read 10 and 28 rather than matching a compass line straight across the page.

How accurate is the layout?

The runway, taxiways and apron are plotted from published runway data for Simmons AAF, and the thresholds are labeled 10 and 28 as published. This is artwork rather than a navigation chart, so fine details may be simplified or omitted. Pavement markings, lighting and signage are the usual examples.

What sizes and finishes does this come in?

The FBG diagram is offered as a Fine Art Print, a Framed Fine Art Print, a Glossy Metal Print and a Digital Download, in a range of sizes. Physical pieces are made to order; the digital option is a file you download. Because the composition is one long horizontal runway with open space around it, it holds up in both the smaller and larger sizes.

Does it work as a gift?

It works for anyone with a connection to Fort Bragg or to this field: a pilot, a crew chief, someone who spent years looking at that ramp. The airport information in the corner does the explaining, so the piece makes sense to the person receiving it without a note attached.
