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 Jackson'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.

Jackson Regional Airport Runway Diagram Print
MKL reads as an off-center cross. The print draws two runways that meet at a single crossing point set high in the frame, above the taxiway loops and the apron. Runway 02/20 is the long member at 6,007 by 100 feet, running from the lower left corner up toward the top right. Runway 11/29 is shorter at 3,539 by 100 feet, cutting across the upper third from left to right and clipping 02/20 just past its midpoint. Both are asphalt. The field elevation is 435 feet. Because the crossing sits well north of center, the composition has weight at the top and a long clean diagonal running down through empty space, which is the whole reason this one hangs well.
Jackson Regional is a public use airport about four nautical miles west of downtown Jackson, owned by the city and the county. The Civil Works Administration was persuaded to acquire the property and build the initial runways and buildings in the 1930s, and the field was originally named in memory of Kenneth Douglas McKellar, a longtime U.S. senator from Tennessee. It was leased by the United States Army Air Forces in 1942 and operated as McKellar Field, a primary pilot training airfield where cadets flew PT-17 Stearman biplanes. Southern Airways connected the city to Memphis and Nashville in 1960. The airport carried the McKellar-Sipes name from the 1970s, for Major Robert Ray "Buster" Sipes, an Air Force test pilot from Jackson, before taking its current name.
As a print, the appeal is the geometry: one bold diagonal, one shorter bar across it, and a lot of quiet paper around them. The runway end markers read 02, 20, 11 and 29, and the identifier block carries the coordinates and the elevation. Sized for a hallway, an office wall or a gallery grouping, printed to order in the colorway you choose.
Jackson (MKL) print, common questions
How many runways does MKL have, and how long are they?
Two. Runway 02/20 measures 6,007 by 100 feet and runway 11/29 measures 3,539 by 100 feet. Both are asphalt, and both appear on the print with their end designators.
What does the code MKL stand for?
MKL is the identifier for Jackson Regional Airport in Jackson, Tennessee. The ICAO code is KMKL, but the print carries the short form MKL, which is what pilots and travelers actually say.
Where is the airport, and how high is the field?
It sits about four nautical miles west of the central business district of Jackson, in west Tennessee, at 35.5999 N, 88.9156 W. Field elevation is 435 feet, printed under the coordinates.
How accurate is the layout on this print?
The runways, taxiways, apron and building footprints are plotted from published airport information for the current charting cycle, so the crossing angle and the relative runway lengths follow the published layout. It is designed as wall art, not as a navigation document: fine details may be simplified or omitted, and it should never be used for flight.
What sizes are available?
Several standard portrait sizes, printed to order in the colorway you choose. The tall format suits MKL well, since the long 02/20 diagonal needs vertical room to breathe.
Is this a good gift for a Jackson pilot?
It works for anyone with a tie to the field: student pilots who learned in the pattern here, National Guard families, or someone who simply grew up under the approach. The identifier is legible across a room, so the recipient recognizes it immediately.
