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 Huron'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.

Huron Regional Airport Runway Diagram Print
Huron Regional Airport works two concrete runways, and the print is built on the way they cross. Runway 12/30 runs 7,201 by 100 feet as a long diagonal falling from the upper left of the frame to the lower right, with a parallel taxiway shadowing it for most of that length. Runway 18/36, 5,000 by 75 feet, drops straight down the sheet and cuts the diagonal past its midpoint, so the crossing sits low and off center rather than in the middle. Field elevation is 1,289 feet above sea level and magnetic variation is 7E. The terminal and hangar blocks gather to the east of the crossing, and the rest of the sheet stays open, which is a fair impression of a field covering 1,235 acres.
The airport opened in 1937 as the W. W. Howes Municipal Airport, named for William Washington Howes, First Assistant Postmaster General under Franklin Roosevelt, who brought airmail service to the Midwest. The hangar on the field was named the W. W. Howes hangar in 1998, through the efforts of Howes' grandson Dr. Whiting Wicker. The terminal that stands there opened in 1979.
For decades the field sat on propeller routes that read like a timetable of the middle of the country. In 1948 Western Douglas DC-3s stopped at Huron on a multi-stop run between Denver and Minneapolis/St. Paul, and in 1962 North Central flew a daily DC-3 that began at Regina, Saskatchewan and worked south through Bismarck, Aberdeen, Huron, Mitchell, Sioux Falls and Sioux City to Omaha. In the year ending August 2022 the field logged 12,200 aircraft operations, 98 percent of them general aviation, with 21 aircraft based on it.
As art the layout is left to speak plainly. Runway designators, lengths and widths follow the published figures, and taxiways and apron edges are reduced to flat geometry over the ground tone you choose. This is original wall art composed from published airport information and available field depictions rather than a navigation document, printed to order at a size that reads from across a room and still holds up when you stand close to the terminal end.
Huron (HON) print, common questions
How many runways does Huron Regional Airport have?
Two, both concrete. Runway 12/30 is 7,201 by 100 feet and runway 18/36 is 5,000 by 75 feet. On the print the longer one is the diagonal and the shorter one crosses it below the middle of the frame.
What is the longest runway at HON, and how high is the field?
The longest runway is 12/30 at 7,201 feet. Field elevation is 1,289 feet above sea level, and that figure is set in the margin of the print.
What does HON stand for and where is the airport?
HON is the IATA code for Huron Regional Airport, which serves Huron, the seat of Beadle County, South Dakota, at roughly 44.39 north, 98.23 west. It opened in 1937 under the name W. W. Howes Municipal Airport.
Is the diagram accurate to the real airport?
The runway designators, lengths, widths and the angle between the two runways come from published airport information for the field. It is original wall art, not a chart: fine details may be simplified or omitted, including minor taxiway markings, signage and small structures, and it is not for navigation.
What sizes can I get, and does this work as a gift?
Each one is made to order in several sizes and finishes, on the ground tone you pick at checkout. It suits pilots who learned on the long runway here, families with a South Dakota connection, and anyone who has flown into Huron for the state fair.
