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 Owensboro'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.

Owensboro/Daviess County Regional Airport Runway Diagram Print
Two runways cross near the middle of the field at OWB, and that crossing carries the whole composition. Runway 18/36 runs 8,000 by 150 feet of concrete, standing almost vertical on the sheet and long enough to reach from the upper edge down past the lower third. Runway 06/24, 5,000 by 100 feet of asphalt and concrete, cuts across it on a diagonal from lower left to upper right. What you get is an X with one long arm and one short one, set slightly off center, which hangs better than a tidy symmetric cross.
The airport sits three miles southwest of Owensboro in Daviess County, owned by both the city and the county, and covers 880 acres at an elevation of 407 feet. That elevation is the last line of type in the corner block, under the coordinates. Scheduled flying here has a long back catalog: Eastern Airlines served Owensboro from 1951 to 1964, and Ozark Airlines from 1955 to 1975. In 2016 the field recorded 23,537 passenger boardings, and in 2019 there were 49 aircraft based on the property.
North of the crossing, the taxiways gather into an apron with hangars and terminal buildings packed into the top right corner, the densest ink anywhere in the frame. A smaller building cluster sits farther south along 18/36, and the rest of the sheet stays open, which is what gives the layout room to read from across a room. In 2023, Owensboro's scheduled service was routed to Chicago O'Hare rather than Charlotte, since Charlotte was already served by nearby Evansville Regional. In the colorway you choose, the two runways stay the loudest marks on the page and everything else behaves like background.
Owensboro (OWB) print, common questions
How many runways does OWB have, and how long are they?
Two. Runway 18/36 is 8,000 by 150 feet with a concrete surface, and runway 06/24 is 5,000 by 100 feet with an asphalt and concrete surface. Both appear in the artwork, crossing above the midpoint of the longer strip.
Where is the airport and how high is the field?
It is in Owensboro, Kentucky, three miles southwest of the city in Daviess County, at an elevation of 407 feet. The coordinates and that elevation are printed in the corner block of the artwork.
How accurate is the layout in this print?
The diagram is plotted from published airport information for OWB, so runway 18/36 and 06/24 hold their published lengths, widths and crossing angle in relation to each other. At print scale, fine details may be simplified or omitted. Runway markings, lighting and narrow service roads are the usual examples.
What does OWB mean?
OWB is the three letter identifier for Owensboro/Daviess County Regional, and it is the code set in large type at the bottom of the artwork. The longer ICAO form is not used on the print.
What formats can I order?
Four: Fine Art Print, Framed Fine Art Print, Glossy Metal Print and Digital Download. Every physical piece is made to order in the size and finish you select; the digital option is a file you download. The metal finish suits this layout well, since the runways are broad solid shapes.
Does this work as a gift for someone connected to Owensboro?
It does, particularly for anyone who trained, based an aircraft or worked on the field. The crossing runways and the corner block naming Owensboro, Kentucky make it readable at a glance, so the recipient recognizes the place before reading any of the type.
