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 Olathe'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.

New Century Aircenter Airport Runway Diagram Print
New Century AirCenter works two runways, and this print draws both to scale from published field information. Runway 18/36 is the main strip at 7,339 feet by 150 feet, and 04/22 is the shorter one at 5,132 feet by 100 feet, narrower as well as shorter, which is the sort of difference a to-scale drawing actually shows you. Both are asphalt. The field sits at 1,087 feet of elevation with a magnetic variation of 4E, both noted small in the corner the way a chart carries them, on a property covering roughly 2,600 acres.
The layout is bigger than a general aviation field usually gets because the Navy built it. This was Naval Air Station Olathe, also known as Flatley Field, four miles southwest of downtown Olathe in Johnson County, Kansas. Johnson County acquired the property in 1973 and renamed it Johnson County Industrial Airport, with a new mission as an industrial park, and changed the name again on September 28, 1994 to New Century AirCenter so the aviation side would not get lost. The Base Realignment and Closure Commission voted in 1995 to close the Naval Air Reserve Center there, and all Navy activities ended in 1996. The business park that grew up on the rest of the land even runs its own short railroad.
The identifiers here are a small tangle worth knowing if the code on the print catches your eye. IXD traces back to the Johnson County Industrial Airport name; the county first asked for IND, which belonged to Indianapolis, then IJC, which was too close to OJC at the neighboring Johnson County Executive Airport, so it settled for the nearest available industrial code. The travel-industry code for the field is JCI, because IXD was already assigned to an airport in Allahabad, India. Measured by aircraft operations, this was the second busiest airport in Kansas in 2019. On the sheet, all of that history reduces to shape: two runways at plainly different scales, their designators, and the wide open ground a naval air station leaves behind, composed from published airport information and available field depictions and set on a ground tone you choose. It reads as a clean graphic mark from across a room and rewards a closer look.
Olathe (IXD) print, common questions
How many runways does New Century AirCenter have?
Two. Runway 18/36 and runway 04/22, both asphalt, both drawn to scale in the print.
How long is the longest runway at IXD?
7,339 feet. That is runway 18/36, which is also the wider of the two at 150 feet. Runway 04/22 measures 5,132 feet by 100 feet.
What is the field elevation at IXD?
1,087 feet above sea level, printed small in the corner of the diagram alongside the 4E magnetic variation.
Where is IXD, and what was it before?
The airport is four miles southwest of downtown Olathe, in Johnson County, Kansas. It was Naval Air Station Olathe, also called Flatley Field, before Johnson County acquired it in 1973.
Why does the airport have two different codes?
IXD comes from its old name, Johnson County Industrial Airport, after the codes IND and IJC were unavailable. The travel-industry code is JCI, because IXD was already assigned to an airport in Allahabad, India.
How does the IXD print relate to the airport's layout?
Published airport information and available field depictions guide the IXD composition, including the runway designators and relative geometry. It is original wall art, so fine details may be simplified or omitted.
