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.

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 Highgate'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.

Franklin County State Airport Runway Diagram Print
Franklin County State runs on a single runway: 18/36, 4,001 feet long and 75 feet wide, asphalt. That one strip is the whole composition. It runs nearly top to bottom on the sheet, tipped a few degrees off vertical, with the 18 threshold labeled at the top and 36 at the bottom. Nothing crosses it, and nothing parallels it.
Everything else sits off the runway's east flank: a long taxiway that runs down beside the pavement and loops back toward the southern threshold, an apron, and a thin string of buildings scattered along its length. The field sits at 228 feet of elevation in Highgate, in Vermont's northwest corner. Burlington lies south along the lake, and Plattsburgh sits west across the water in New York.
As artwork, the appeal here is restraint. One long ruled bar of ink, a pale taxiway shadowing it, and a wide field of open paper around both. At 4,001 feet by 75 feet the runway reads almost as a drafted rule line, while the small grey blocks of the apron give the eye a place to settle. Hung large, the coordinates and the 228 foot elevation line in the lower corner carry the rest, and the whole thing reads as quiet geometry from across a room.
Highgate (FSO) print, common questions
How many runways does Franklin County State have?
One. Runway 18/36 measures 4,001 feet by 75 feet with an asphalt surface, and the artwork shows that single strip with no crossing or parallel pavement.
Where is FSO, and how high is the field?
FSO is Franklin County State in Highgate, Vermont, near 44.9389 degrees north and 73.0971 degrees west. Field elevation is 228 feet, and that figure is printed in the lower corner of the sheet.
Why is the runway slightly off vertical in the print?
Runway numbers come from magnetic heading, and magnetic variation at this field is listed as 14W. A runway named 18/36 therefore does not sit perfectly upright on a north up sheet, which is why the bar leans a few degrees.
How closely does the artwork follow the published layout?
It is composed from published airport information for cycle 2610, so runway proportions and the taxiway position come from published runway data, and fine details may be simplified or omitted. Pavement markings, lighting and signage are the usual examples, since they would disappear at wall scale anyway.
What formats does this come in?
Fine Art Print, Framed Fine Art Print, Glossy Metal Print and Digital Download. Physical pieces are made to order in the size and colorway you choose. The digital option is a file you print yourself.
Does this work as a gift?
It does if the person has a reason to care about this specific field: a pilot who trained on 18/36, someone who grew up near Highgate, or anyone who keeps a soft spot for small Vermont airfields. A single runway on a clean sheet is legible without any aviation background.
