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 Meridian'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.

Meridian NAS (McCain Field) Runway Diagram Print
Meridian NAS (McCain Field) draws as three concrete runways radiating from one compact core, and that is the whole composition. Runway 01L/19R is the longest at 8,003 feet. Its parallel partner 01R/19L runs 8,000 feet, just three feet shorter. Runway 10/28 is the short one at 6,402 feet. All three are 200 feet wide, which is why this print reads the way it does: at that width the strips plot as heavy solid bars rather than hairlines, and they carry the page on their own.
The layout is the reason to hang it. In the drawing the two parallels are not stacked side by side like rungs on a ladder. They are offset end to end along the same lower left to upper right diagonal, with the longer 01L/19R set to the southwest, so the pair steps across the sheet instead of sitting square to it. Runway 10/28 leaves the middle and angles down to the right. Nothing crosses anything. The three bars meet only through the pale gray taxiways and the apron clustered near the center, which leaves a lot of quiet open ground and gives the composition its off balance, pinwheel look. Runway numbers here follow magnetic north, and the published magnetic variation is 2W.
The field sits 11 miles northeast of Meridian, Mississippi, spread across Lauderdale County and Kemper County. It was commissioned in 1961 as a Naval Auxiliary Air Station, and at that time the operations area was named McCain Field in honor of the late Admiral John S. McCain, Sr. of Teoc, Mississippi. In 1968 it became a full Naval Air Station, and in 1971 Training Air Wing ONE was commissioned there. Elevation is 316 feet, printed under the coordinates in the lower right block. If you are building out a Deep South wall, the diagrams for Jackson and Tuscaloosa sit alongside this one without repeating its shape.
Meridian (NMM) print, common questions
How many runways does Meridian NAS (McCain Field) have, and how long are they?
Three. Runway 01L/19R is 8,003 feet, runway 01R/19L is 8,000 feet, and runway 10/28 is 6,402 feet. Every one of them is 200 feet wide and surfaced in concrete, and all three appear in the print.
What is NMM, and where is the airport?
NMM is the identifier for Meridian NAS (McCain Field), a military airport 11 miles northeast of Meridian, Mississippi, in Lauderdale County and Kemper County. Field elevation is 316 feet, noted at the bottom of the sheet.
How accurate is the layout in this artwork?
It is plotted from published airport information for McCain Field: the runway designators, the 8,003 foot, 8,000 foot and 6,402 foot lengths, the 200 foot widths and the way the three strips sit relative to each other. It is wall art first, so fine details may be simplified or omitted. Pavement markings, lighting and minor service roads are the usual omissions.
Why does the print show only the main field?
The drawing covers McCain Field itself. The station also maintains a separate outlying landing field, Joe Williams, northwest of the main air station, and that field is a different site that is not part of this composition.
What formats does this come in?
Fine Art Print, Framed Fine Art Print, Glossy Metal Print and Digital Download, in a range of sizes. The physical pieces are made to order in the colorway you choose; the digital option is a file. Larger sizes suit this layout well, since the open ground around the runways is part of the design.
Does this work as a gift?
It lands for anyone with a connection to McCain Field or to Meridian, Mississippi: a pilot who flew the pattern here, an instructor, a family member marking a wings ceremony. The three runway shape is specific enough that people who know the field recognize it across a room.
