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 Fort Wayne'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.

Fort Wayne International Airport Runway Diagram Print
Fort Wayne International draws as a hard X. Runway 05/23 runs 11,981 feet from the lower left of the sheet up to the northeast, and Runway 14/32 comes down across it from the upper left at 8,002 feet, the same 150 feet wide. The two meet high in the frame, well above center, so the weight of the composition sits toward the top and the long southwest tail of 05/23 carries the eye back down into open paper.
The field lies eight miles southwest of Fort Wayne, in Allen County, at an elevation of 815 feet. It was built as an Army Air Corps base just before World War II and named for Paul Frank Baer, a Fort Wayne native and World War I flying ace. In 1991 Baer Field was renamed Fort Wayne International. None of that history is spelled out on the print, but the base layout is why the two big runways sit at such a wide angle to each other.
The third runway is the short one. Runway 09/27 measures 4,001 by 75 feet and reads as a stubby horizontal bar clipping the main diagonal below the crossing, a small level line held against two long angles. Taxiways, aprons and building footprints sit behind the runways in a lighter tone, which keeps the geometry legible from across a room and gives the print somewhere to reward a closer look. It hangs well on its own and pairs naturally with a nearby Indiana field such as Muncie.
Fort Wayne (FWA) print, common questions
How many runways does Fort Wayne International have, and how do they read on the print?
Three. Runway 05/23 and Runway 14/32 are the two long ones, and they cross in an X near the top of the sheet. Runway 09/27 is the short strip lying flat across the main diagonal below that crossing.
How long are the runways at FWA?
Runway 05/23 is 11,981 feet by 150 feet. Runway 14/32 is 8,002 feet by 150 feet. Runway 09/27 is 4,001 feet by 75 feet. All three are asphalt and concrete.
Where is the airport, and how high is the field?
Eight miles southwest of Fort Wayne, in Allen County, Indiana. Field elevation is 815 feet, and the print carries the elevation and the coordinates, 40.9785 N and 85.1952 W, under the identifier.
What does FWA mean?
FWA is the three letter identifier for Fort Wayne International, and it is the code set in large type at the lower right of the print with the city and state beneath it.
How closely does the print follow the published layout?
Runway positions, lengths, widths and crossing angles are plotted from published airport information for this field. It is wall art, not a navigation chart: markings, lighting, signage and some taxiway and building edges are simplified or left out so the shape stays readable at print size.
Does this work as a gift?
It does, especially for someone who has flown in and out of Fort Wayne or worked on the field. Several sizes are offered, the colorway you choose sets the tone, and each one is printed to order with free US shipping.
