The field itself

This is Marion'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.

Veterans Airport of Southern Illinois Runway Diagram Print

Veterans Airport of Southern Illinois works two runways, and the print is built around the long one: 2/20 at 8,012 by 150 feet, with the crosswind strip 11/29 at 4,997 by 100 feet. Field elevation is 472 feet above sea level and magnetic variation is 1E, so the plotted headings sit almost square with true north. On the sheet, 2/20 reads as a long near-vertical spine leaning slightly toward the northeast, and 11/29 begins where that spine passes and runs off to the east-southeast, so the two pavements meet in a narrow wedge near the southwest end of the field.

The field sits five miles west of Marion in Williamson County, is owned by the Williamson County Airport Authority, and still carries the older name Williamson County Regional Airport. Ozark DC-3s started landing here in 1955, and the carrier's DC-9 flights ended in early 1982. On November 11, 2016, during the grand opening ceremony for the new terminal, the airport was renamed Veterans Airport of Southern Illinois to honor veterans and to better reflect the regional nature of the field. As of 2026, its scheduled airline service runs to Chicago O'Hare under the federal Essential Air Service program.

As art, the layout 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. A parallel taxiway runs the length of the east side of 2/20 and gives the composition a second line to answer the long runway, while the apron and buildings sit just south of 11/29, close to the corner where the two runways meet, which keeps the weight of the drawing low in the frame. The airport covers 1,300 acres, so the whole field fits inside the border without the linework crowding itself. 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.

Marion (MWA) print, common questions

How many runways does Veterans Airport of Southern Illinois have?

Two. The primary runway 2/20 is 8,012 by 150 feet of asphalt, and the crosswind runway 11/29 is 4,997 by 100 feet of asphalt and concrete. Both are drawn on the print, meeting near the southwest end of the field.

What is the longest runway at MWA, and how high is the field?

The longest runway is 2/20 at 8,012 feet. Field elevation is 472 feet above sea level, and that figure is set in the margin of the print.

What does MWA stand for and where is the airport?

MWA is the IATA code for Veterans Airport of Southern Illinois, also known as Williamson County Regional Airport. It lies five miles west of Marion in Williamson County, southern Illinois, at roughly 37.75 north, 89.01 west.

Why is the airport called Veterans Airport?

The name arrived on November 11, 2016, at the grand opening ceremony for the new terminal, chosen to honor veterans and to better reflect the regional nature of the airport. The print carries the MWA code and the Marion, Illinois line beneath it.

Is the diagram accurate to the real airport?

Runway designators, lengths, widths and the angle between the two runways follow the published figures 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 select at checkout. It reads well for anyone who learned to fly in Williamson County, worked the field, or flew the short hop out of Marion.
