Lansing Municipal Airport Runway Diagram Print

Lansing Municipal (IGQ) has two runways, and the print draws them as a right angle that never closes: 09/27 runs flat across the upper part of the sheet, while 18/36 drops straight down the right side, starting well below the horizontal strip and reaching toward the bottom margin. The two are joined by a long taxiway that steps down and to the right from the apron area, so the composition reads as an L with a generous gap of empty paper inside it. Nothing crosses, nothing overlaps.

The numbers behind that shape are small and specific. Runway 18/36 is the longer of the pair at 4,002 feet by 75 feet, and 09/27 measures 3,395 feet by 75 feet, both listed with an ASPH-TRTD-G surface. Field elevation is 620 feet, and the sheet carries it along with the coordinates under the IGQ wordmark. Magnetic variation is 2W, which is part of why the north-south strip sits so nearly vertical on the page. Hangar rows and the apron sit in a lighter tone at the top left, close enough together to give the eye somewhere to land before it follows the taxiway south.

As artwork, the appeal is the asymmetry: a dense cluster of buildings and taxiways up top, one long quiet run of runway down the right, and a lot of open field. It holds a narrow vertical wall well, and it sits comfortably next to other airport prints in the same series, Valparaiso or Kenosha among them, where the layouts break differently. The runway markings, the taxiway ladder alongside 18/36 and the threshold numbers stay legible at a distance, and the colorway you choose sets how loudly the runway bars read against the background.

Chicago (IGQ) print, common questions

How many runways does Lansing Municipal have?

Two. Runway 18/36 is 4,002 feet long by 75 feet wide, and runway 09/27 is 3,395 feet long by 75 feet wide. Both are listed with an ASPH-TRTD-G surface.

What is IGQ, and where is the airport?

IGQ is the identifier for Lansing Municipal in Chicago, Illinois, at roughly 41.5349 degrees north and 87.5295 degrees west. Field elevation is 620 feet, and that figure is printed on the artwork.

Why do the runways look like an L on the print?

Because that is how the field is arranged: 09/27 runs east to west across the top, and 18/36 runs north to south along the right, set below and apart from the other strip rather than intersecting it. A taxiway connects them, which is the line you see stepping down from the apron.

How accurate is the layout?

Runway positions, lengths and orientations are plotted from published airport data, so the shapes and proportions follow the published diagram. It is still a piece of artwork, and fine details may be simplified or omitted. Pavement markings, lighting and signage are examples of what gets reduced for legibility at wall scale.

What formats does this come in?

Four: Fine Art Print, Framed Fine Art Print, Glossy Metal Print and Digital Download. Physical pieces are made to order in a range of sizes, and the digital option is a file you print yourself.

Is this a good gift for a pilot who flies out of IGQ?

It works well for anyone with a connection to the field, since the two runways and the hangar rows are recognizable at a glance to someone who has taxied there. The identifier, the city and the 620 foot elevation are set below the diagram, so the reference is clear without a caption.
