Description
A runway diagram map print of Waterbury-Oxford Airport (OXC), 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 Oxford'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.

Waterbury-Oxford Airport Runway Diagram Print
Waterbury-Oxford is a single runway field, and the print builds the whole sheet around that one strip. Runway 18/36 measures 5,801 feet by 100 feet on asphalt, and on the print it runs nearly the full height of the page, tilted a few degrees so it leans to the right as it drops from the 18 label at the top to the 36 label at the bottom. Nothing crosses it and nothing runs alongside it.
Around that line sit the taxiway loops, the aprons and the hangar blocks, gathered mostly along one side and held a step lighter than the runway itself so the strip stays the darkest thing on the sheet. The field sits at 730 feet of elevation, three miles north of the center of Oxford, Connecticut, on ground that was farmland until the mid-1960s. Ground was broken in 1968, the airport opened in 1969, and in 1972 the land for Airport Road, the link out to Route 188, went to the State of Connecticut. A national airport systems plan for 2017 to 2021 listed it as a national general aviation facility, and in 2008 a restaurant opened in a building next to the runway as a place to watch operations over a meal.
On a wall, a one runway diagram is the easy case: a long vertical, a slight lean, a dense cluster of pavement at one end of the sheet and quiet space everywhere else. It reads from across a room and rewards a closer look at the taxiway geometry, and whichever colorway you choose, the runway keeps the strongest contrast. It also groups well with other fields in the region, so a print of New Haven or one of White Plains can hang next to it without either one fighting for attention.
Oxford (OXC) print, common questions
How many runways does Waterbury-Oxford have, and what does the print show?
Waterbury-Oxford has a single runway, 18/36, and the print draws that one strip: 18 labeled at the top of the sheet and 36 at the bottom, with no crossing runway and no parallel.
How long is the runway at OXC?
Runway 18/36 is 5,801 feet long and 100 feet wide, with an asphalt surface. That single length sets the vertical proportion of the whole composition.
Where is OXC and how high is the field?
OXC is the identifier for Waterbury-Oxford, in Oxford, Connecticut, at roughly 41.4783 degrees north and 73.1352 degrees west. Field elevation is 730 feet, and it is printed in the corner block under the code.
How accurate is the layout compared to the real airport?
The runway, taxiways and building footprints are plotted from published airport information for the current charting cycle, so the geometry, the runway designators and the elevation follow that published data. It is still a print and not a navigation document: fine details may be simplified or omitted, including markings, lighting and minor pavement edges.
What sizes are available?
The diagram is composed to hold up at several standard print sizes, printed to order in the colorway you choose. Larger sizes give the taxiway loops and hangar blocks more room to separate from the runway line.
Does this work as a gift for a pilot who flies out of Oxford?
It does. Anyone who has taxied out to 18 or rolled out on 36 recognizes the shape immediately, and the code block and 730 foot elevation make it specific to this field rather than generic aviation art.
