A runway diagram map print of Nome Airport (OME), made from the airport's own layout for the place it holds in your life. Choose your colorway and your format: a fine art giclée print on cotton paper, a framed fine art print, a glossy metal print or a digital download.
Your fine art print is made to order with pigment inks on heavyweight, 100% cotton Hot Press paper, a 330 gsm sheet with a high color gamut and deep black density. The acid-free, archival-grade paper has a smooth matte surface. Supplied unframed, ready for your own frame.
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. Orders containing only paper prints ship flat, though paper may retain a slight curl; orders with framed or metal pieces ship in separate boxes. Digital downloads are delivered by email, so there is nothing to ship.
The Digital Download is a JPEG at 300 dpi, sized for 24 by 30 inches. The digital add-on matches the selected physical print size at 300 dpi. Download links arrive by email and stay active for 30 days; save the file within that time and keep it for personal, non-commercial use. No physical item is shipped.
Physical products have a 30-day money-back guarantee. Contact us within 30 days of delivery to request a refund; we may require a return before issuing it.
Digital downloads are non-refundable once delivered, except where required by law or where AirportPrints determines that a delivery failure or technical issue was caused by AirportPrints.
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 Nome'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.

Nome Airport Runway Diagram Print
Nome Airport lays two asphalt runways across each other in a wide X, and that crossing is the whole composition. Runway 3/21 is the longer of the pair at 6,176 by 150 feet, running from the lower left of the sheet up to the top right corner. Runway 10/28 measures 6,009 by 150 feet and takes the shallower diagonal, entering high on the left and sloping down to the right until it reaches the apron. The two meet left of center, which leaves a lot of open paper around one decisive shape.
The field sits at 41 feet above mean sea level, two nautical miles west of the central business district of Nome. Its history is in the runways themselves: during World War II the civilian airport shared use of the runway with Marks Army Airfield for transfer of Lend-Lease aircraft to the Soviet Union, and in 1942 for air defense of the western coast of Alaska. The installation was renamed Marks Air Force Base in 1948, closed in 1950, and an air base squadron stayed on at Nome Airport until 1956.
On a wall the layout reads as a single bold X with a pale grey terminal and apron tucked into the right quadrant, and that grey is where the working traffic lives. In 2020 the airport logged 27,450 aircraft operations, an average of 75 per day, more than half of it air taxi flying. Hung beside prints of Fairbanks or Anchorage, it makes an Alaska grouping that is mostly geometry and negative space, and it is the one that people stop and ask about.
Nome (OME) print, common questions
How many runways does Nome Airport have, and how long are they?
Two. Runway 3/21 is 6,176 by 150 feet and Runway 10/28 is 6,009 by 150 feet, both asphalt. They cross each other, which is the X shape you see on the print.
What does OME stand for?
OME is the identifier for Nome Airport, serving Nome, Alaska. It is the code set in heavy type at the lower right of the print, under the diagram.
Where is the airport, and what is its elevation?
It sits at 41 feet above mean sea level, two nautical miles west of the central business district of Nome, in Alaska. The coordinates printed on the sheet place it at 64.5126 degrees north, 165.4444 degrees west.
How closely does the diagram follow the published layout?
The runways are plotted from published airport information: designators, published lengths and widths, and the angle at which the two strips cross. It is a print rather than a navigation document, so fine detail such as markings, lighting, signage and minor pavement is simplified or omitted to keep the shape legible at wall distance.
What sizes can I get?
It comes in a range of sizes, from small desk formats up to large statement panels, printed to order in the colorway you choose. Because Nome is a two runway field, the X holds up well even at the smaller sizes.
Is this a good gift for someone connected to Nome?
Yes, especially for air taxi and cargo crews, anyone who grew up in western Alaska, or a passenger who remembers landing on that crossing pair. Every print is made to order and ships free within the US.
