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 Montgomery'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.

Montgomery Regional (Dannelly Field) Runway Diagram Print
Montgomery Regional Airport, also known as Dannelly Field, works two asphalt runways set as a lopsided X. Runway 10/28 is 9,020 by 150 feet and runs east and west across the full width of the diagram, tipped very slightly down toward the 28 end. Runway 03/21 is 4,011 by 150 feet and cuts up from the lower left to the upper right, crossing the long runway well east of its midpoint, much closer to the 28 threshold than to the 10 threshold. Magnetic variation is 1W. That off centre crossing is what makes the composition: the long strip is divided into a wide left panel and a short right one, and the shorter runway hangs below the intersection with nothing on its southwest end but taxiway.
The airport sits seven miles southwest of downtown Montgomery, the capital of Alabama and, at the 2020 census, the state's fourth most populous city after Huntsville, Mobile and Birmingham. Commercial and military flying in the city have been tangled together from the start. The first air services used Maxwell Field west of town, and the municipal airport the city opened east of town in 1929 became Gunter Field. When the War Department took Gunter for pilot training in 1940, the city bought a tract southwest of downtown on US 80 to replace it, and the Army Air Forces adopted the same ground as Gunter's auxiliary field number six. It opened in 1943, named for Ensign Clarence Moore Dannelly Jr., a Navy pilot killed in a 1940 training accident and counted as the first World War II casualty from Montgomery. The city took title in 1946.
Some of the pavement on the print no longer serves a runway, which is part of why the grey geometry does not all line up with the two black strips. Dannelly opened with three runways. 15/33 was closed in 1981 and portions of it remain as taxiway and apron, while 9/27 was extended in 1955 and again in 1963 and was redesignated 10/28 in 1992. A long taxiway stem also runs well south of the field to a separate apron block, which gives the lower half of the sheet a quiet stretch of open ground.
As art, the field is left to speak plainly. Runway designators, lengths and widths follow the published figures, and taxiways, apron edges and building footprints are reduced to flat geometry over the ground tone you choose. The terminal and hangar blocks cluster along the north side of 10/28, so the top of the print carries the detail and the bottom carries the space. 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 rewards standing close.
Montgomery (MGM) print, common questions
How many runways does Montgomery Regional Airport have?
Two, both asphalt. Runway 10/28 is 9,020 by 150 feet and runway 03/21 is 4,011 by 150 feet. They cross east of the middle of the long runway, which is the shape the print is built around.
What is the longest runway at MGM?
Runway 10/28 at 9,020 feet by 150 feet. It began life as runway 9/27, was extended in 1955 and again in 1963, and was redesignated 10/28 in 1992.
What does MGM stand for, and who was Dannelly Field named for?
MGM is the IATA code for Montgomery Regional Airport, seven miles southwest of downtown Montgomery, the capital of Alabama. The field is named for Ensign Clarence Moore Dannelly Jr., a Navy pilot killed in a 1940 training accident who was counted as the first World War II casualty from Montgomery.
Why does the drawing show pavement that is not connected to a runway?
Dannelly opened with three runways, and 15/33 was closed in 1981 with portions kept as taxiway and apron. That leftover geometry, plus a long taxiway stem running south to a separate apron, is what gives the layout its odd angles.
Is the diagram accurate to the real airport?
The runway designators, lengths, widths and the crossing angle between the two strips 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 print is made to order in several sizes and finishes, on a ground tone you pick at checkout. It reads well for anyone who has flown into Dannelly Field, worked on the ramp there, or grew up in the River Region.
