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 Sacramento'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.

Sacramento Mather Airport Runway Diagram Print
Sacramento Mather has two runways and they run parallel, both angled southwest to northeast, which is the entire shape of this print. The long one, 04R/22L, measures 11,301 by 150 feet on an asphalt and concrete surface. The shorter 04L/22R measures 6,081 by 150 feet in asphalt, at the same width, sitting just above and inside its partner with staggered ends. Rendered flat, that pairing reads as two dark bars crossing the sheet at a steady tilt, one close to double the other, with the taxiways and apron massed in pale grey off the upper left.
The field sits east of Sacramento in Sacramento County, and it occupies the site of Mather Air Force Base, which closed in 1993. The drawing keeps the labels a pilot would read on the ground: 4R and 22L on the long strip, 4L and 22R on the short one, set in small white type inside the black. Field elevation is 98 feet, printed in the corner block under the coordinates, so the print carries its own caption instead of leaning on one.
Two long diagonals with nothing crossing them make an easy piece to live with. There is no X, no triangle, no tangle of intersections to decode, just parallel lines and a lot of open ground, which is why this one hangs well in a hallway or above a desk where a busier diagram would fight the wall. Vertical format, generous margins, and the colorway you choose sets whether the runways read as sharp graphic bars or something quieter. It also groups nicely with other Central Valley and Bay Area fields, so a Stockton or Oakland print alongside it builds a small regional wall.
Sacramento (MHR) print, common questions
How many runways does Sacramento Mather have, and how does the print show them?
Two, and they are parallel. Runway 04R/22L is 11,301 by 150 feet with an asphalt and concrete surface, and 04L/22R is 6,081 by 150 feet in asphalt. The print draws both as solid diagonals running southwest to northeast, with the shorter runway offset above the longer one and no intersection between them.
How long is the longest runway at MHR?
11,301 feet, at 150 feet wide. That is runway 04R/22L, the lower and longer of the two diagonals in the print, and it extends past the shorter runway at both ends, which is what gives the composition its lopsided balance.
Where is MHR, and what is the field elevation?
Sacramento Mather is east of Sacramento, in Sacramento County, California. Field elevation is 98 feet. Both the elevation and the coordinates, 38.5553 N and 121.2972 W, are set in the caption block at the lower right of the print.
What does the code MHR mean?
MHR is the identifier for Sacramento Mather Airport; its ICAO code is KMHR. The print uses MHR only, set large under the diagram, so the identifier reads as the title rather than as a piece of small print.
How accurate is the layout?
It is plotted from published airport information for the field, including the runway designators, lengths and widths listed above. It is a print, not a navigation document: fine details may be simplified or omitted, and small taxiway connectors, markings, lighting and individual buildings are reduced to clean shapes so the runway geometry stays readable across a room.
Is this a good gift, and what sizes are available?
It works for anyone with a tie to the field east of Sacramento: pilots who have flown the 11,301 foot runway, controllers, cargo and military crews, or someone who trained there. Prints are made to order in several standard sizes, with a choice of finish and the colorway you choose, and they ship free within the US.
