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.

Dimensions

Fine Art Print: 8 x 10, 16 x 20, and 24 x 30 inches.

Made like something you keep.

The field itself

This is Independence'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.

James H Connell Field at Independence Municipal Airport Runway Diagram Print

IIB is a single runway field, and the print says so plainly: runway 18/36, 5,500 feet long and 100 feet wide, concrete, drawn as one long strip down the sheet. The designators 18 and 36 sit at the two ends, set into the dark band of pavement. Field elevation is 979 feet, printed with the coordinates under the identifier block.

What makes it work on a wall is the restraint. One runway means one dominant vertical line, with a taxiway running parallel along its length and a small cluster of apron and hangar shapes tucked against the middle of the field. There is no crossing strip, no X, no fan of intersecting pavement to balance. The composition is a line, a lighter line beside it, and one dense little knot of geometry breaking the symmetry about halfway down. Depending on the colorway you choose, that contrast reads sharp or quiet, but the shape stays legible from across a room.

The identifier IIB and the line INDEPENDENCE, IOWA anchor the lower corner, so the piece names itself without explanation. If you want a second field on the same wall, the Waterloo print can hang beside this one, and so can the Cedar Rapids print.

Independence (IIB) print, common questions

How many runways does IIB have?

One. Runway 18/36, measuring 5,500 feet by 100 feet with a concrete surface. That single strip is the whole shape of the diagram.

What is IIB and where is it?

IIB is the identifier for James H Connell Field at Independence Municipal in Independence, Iowa. The identifier, the city and the state all appear on the print.

What is the field elevation shown on the print?

979 feet. It is set in the lower corner with the coordinates, 42.4569 degrees north and 91.9477 degrees west.

How accurate is the layout in this artwork?

The diagram is composed from published runway data: one runway, 18/36, at 5,500 feet by 100 feet, plus the taxiway and apron shapes that sit alongside it. It is styled as wall art rather than a navigation chart, so fine details may be simplified or omitted. Surface markings, lighting and signage are the usual examples.

What formats and sizes can I get?

Fine Art Print, Framed Fine Art Print, Glossy Metal Print and Digital Download, in a range of sizes. A tall vertical size suits IIB especially well, since runway 18/36 runs the full height of the composition. Physical pieces are made to order; the digital option is a file.

Does this make a good gift?

It works for anyone with a tie to Independence, Iowa. The identifier IIB and the runway 18/36 layout are specific enough to be personal, and the design is spare enough to hang in a hallway, office or study.
