The field itself

This is Houlton'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.

Houlton International Airport Runway Diagram Print

Houlton International sits at 489 feet of elevation with two runways, and the print draws both. Runway 05/23 is the long one at 5,015 by 100 feet, a single dark bar running corner to corner across the sheet. Runway 01/19 is shorter and narrower at 2,700 by 60 feet, standing almost upright in the upper half of the frame. The two nearly touch low in the composition and then splay apart as they climb, so the field reads as a narrow V rather than a clean X. Around them, taxiways in pale grey close a long triangle, and the apron and building shapes gather off to one side, which keeps all the visual weight on the two runway strokes.

The history behind that geometry is military. Before the United States entered World War II, American army pilots flew aircraft here but could not fly them directly into Canada without violating the official position of neutrality, so local farmers towed the planes across with tractors, and the Canadians closed the Woodstock highway so the aircraft could use it as a runway. From 1944 to 1946 the site also housed Camp Houlton, a prisoner of war camp. The airport is now a public use general aviation field, publicly owned by the town of Houlton.

The name is literal: Houlton is in Aroostook County, near the town border of Hodgdon and on the border of New Brunswick, Canada. That far northeast placement is part of why this diagram appeals to people who have flown it, taught in it, or simply grew up under it. Plotted from published airport information and rendered clean, it hangs as a quiet graphic in an office, a hallway or a flight room, and it groups naturally with other Maine fields such as Bangor and Portland. Pick the colorway that suits the wall and the two runway bars carry the piece either way.

Houlton (HUL) print, common questions

How many runways does Houlton International have, and how long are they?

Two. Runway 05/23 measures 5,015 by 100 feet and runway 01/19 measures 2,700 by 60 feet. Both are asphalt in good condition, and both appear on the print.

What do the runways look like on this print?

They form a narrow V, not a cross. The 5,015 foot runway 05/23 runs as a long diagonal, while the shorter 01/19 stands nearly upright and stops just shy of it, so the two strokes converge low in the frame and open out toward the top.

Where is HUL, and how high is the field?

Houlton, Maine, in Aroostook County, near the town border of Hodgdon and on the border of New Brunswick, Canada. The field elevation is 489 feet. HUL is the three letter identifier shown in the artwork.

How accurate is the diagram?

The layout is plotted from published runway data, so runway 05/23 sits at its published length, width and angle relative to 01/19, and the taxiway and apron shapes follow the published airport information. This is wall art, so fine details may be simplified or omitted. Markings, lighting and minor pavement edges are the usual ones left out.

What sizes are available?

The diagram is composed to hold up across the standard print sizes, from a desk sized sheet to a large statement piece. The line weights are set so the 2,700 foot runway stays legible next to the longer one even at the smaller sizes. Choose the colorway that fits your wall.

Is this a good gift for a Houlton pilot?

Yes, especially for anyone with hours in and out of 05/23 or a connection to Aroostook County. It is made to order, so it arrives as a specific field rather than a generic aviation print, and US shipping is free.
