Shipping and Returns
Physical prints are made to order in 2 to 3 business days; shipping time is added on top and varies by your location and the method you choose. Standard shipping is free across the US.

Digital downloads are delivered by email, so there is nothing to ship.
The Digital Download is a JPEG at 300 dpi, sized for 24 by 30 inches. The digital add-on matches the selected physical print size at 300 dpi. Download links arrive by email and stay active for 30 days; save the file within that time and keep it for personal, non-commercial use. No physical item is shipped.

Digital downloads are non-refundable once delivered, except where required by law or where AirportPrints determines that a delivery failure or technical issue was caused by AirportPrints.
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 Frederick'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.

Frederick Municipal Airport Runway Diagram Print
Frederick Municipal (FDK) is a two runway field, and on this print the two strips cross close together near the upper right, which gives the whole sheet an off center pivot point. Runway 05/23 is the long one at 5819 feet by 100 feet, running from the lower left corner up to that junction. Runway 12/30 is shorter and narrower, 3599 feet by 75 feet, arriving from the upper left. Because they meet so near their own ends, you get two long legs and two short stubs instead of a balanced X, and that lopsided geometry is what makes the composition worth hanging.
Everything else on the sheet is the working side of the field. Taxiways loop around an open wedge of ground east of the pavement, and along the west edge sit the apron, the terminal area and a comb of small hangar rows drawn in a lighter grey so the runway centerlines stay dominant. Both strips are asphalt. The elevation, 309 feet, and the coordinates are set in small type under the FDK block at the bottom right, which keeps the label quiet enough that the diagram reads first from across a room.
At a distance the print reads as two clean angled lines over open space, so it works in a hallway or above a desk without shouting. Up close it turns into a field you can trace: where 12 begins, where 23 ends, where an aircraft would turn off toward the hangars. The colorway you choose sets how hard that contrast lands. It hangs well on its own or in a row with other regional fields, whether that is Hagerstown to the west or Baltimore out east.
Frederick (FDK) print, common questions
How many runways does FDK have?
Two. Runway 05/23 is 5819 feet long and 100 feet wide, and runway 12/30 is 3599 feet long and 75 feet wide. Both are asphalt, and on the print they cross close to their northeastern ends.
How long is the longest runway at Frederick Municipal?
5819 feet, at 100 feet wide. That is runway 05/23, the long diagonal that carries most of the drawing from the lower left up to the crossing point.
Where is FDK, and what does the code mean?
FDK is the identifier for Frederick Municipal Airport in Frederick, Maryland. The field elevation is 309 feet, and the coordinates printed on the sheet are 39.4170 N, 77.3747 W.
How closely does the diagram follow the published layout?
Runway designators, lengths, widths and relative positions come from published airport information for the current data cycle. It is a print, not a navigation chart, so fine details are simplified or omitted: markings, lighting, signage and minor pavement edges are left out to keep the layout legible at wall distance.
What sizes and finishes are available?
Each print is made to order in several standard sizes, as a fine art print, framed or on metal, and the layout is composed so the runway crossing stays centered and the FDK block stays clear at any of them. Shipping within the US is free.
Does this work as a gift?
Yes, especially for someone who trained, based an aircraft or logged circuits at Frederick. The identifier and the shape of the two runways are recognizable to anyone who knows the field, and the rest of the sheet stays neutral enough for a shared room.
