Shipping and Returns
Physical prints are made to order in 2 to 3 business days; shipping time is added on top and varies by your location and the method you choose. Standard shipping is free across the US.

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 Mount Airy'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.

Mount Airy/Surry County Airport Runway Diagram Print
MWK is a single runway field, and the print keeps it that way: one dark strip running nearly the full height of the sheet, tilted a few degrees off vertical, marked 18 at the top and 36 at the bottom. Runway 18/36 measures 5,500 by 75 feet with an asphalt surface, and at that width against that length the strip reads on a wall as a long clean rule, not a shape. There is no second runway to balance it, so the composition leans on the tilt and on the empty ground around it.
Everything else in the drawing hangs off the west side of that line. A taxiway parallels the runway for its full run, loops around both ends, and swells into two apron areas: a smaller one up near the 18 end and a denser cluster of hangar blocks toward the 36 end, drawn as a row of stepped rectangles. Those buildings are the only busy passage in the frame, which is what makes the rest of the sheet feel as wide as it does.
The field sits three nautical miles southeast of downtown Mount Airy, in the unincorporated Holly Springs community of Surry County, and it is owned by the city and the county together. Elevation is 1269 feet, which is printed under the identifier along with the coordinates. The national airport systems plan for 2011 through 2015 categorized MWK as a general aviation facility, and 39 aircraft were based here in 2009.
If you are collecting the Piedmont fields, this one hangs well next to the busier plates from Winston Salem or Greensboro, where the diagrams fill more of the paper. Against those, MWK is the quiet one: a single line, a little off plumb, and a lot of air.
Mount Airy (MWK) print, common questions
How many runways does MWK have?
One. Runway 18/36 is the only runway at Mount Airy/Surry County Airport, and the print shows it as a single strip with the taxiway running alongside it.
How long is the runway at Mount Airy/Surry County Airport?
5,500 feet long and 75 feet wide, with an asphalt surface. Those proportions are what give the print its long thin line.
Where is MWK, and what does the code mean?
MWK is the identifier for Mount Airy/Surry County Airport, three nautical miles southeast of downtown Mount Airy in Surry County, North Carolina. The ICAO identifier is KMWK. Field elevation is 1269 feet, and that figure appears on the print.
How accurate is the diagram?
The layout is plotted from published airport information: one runway, 18/36, at its published length and width, plus the taxiway, apron and hangar shapes around it. This is a print rather than a navigation document, so fine details may be simplified or omitted. Markings, lighting and signage are the usual examples.
What sizes are available?
Several print sizes, in portrait to suit the vertical runway. The colorway you choose sets the ground and line tones. Every copy is made to order and ships free within the US.
Does this work as a gift for a pilot?
It does if the person has a connection to this field. Anyone who has flown 18/36, trained here, or kept an aircraft on the Surry County ramp will recognize the shape before they read the letters.
