Description
A runway diagram map print of Pellston Regional/Emmet County Airport (PLN), 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 Pellston'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.

Pellston Regional/Emmet County Airport Runway Diagram Print
Two runways cross at Pellston Regional/Emmet County, and the print hands you that crossing at full size. Runway 14/32 runs 6,513 by 150 feet from the upper left down to the lower right, and 05/23 runs 5,401 by 150 feet from the lower left up to the right edge. Both are asphalt. They meet a little left of center, so the two dark strips resolve into one wide X that carries the whole sheet, with the shorter runway reading as the slightly lighter stroke.
Everything else is deliberately quiet. Taxiways and the apron are plotted in soft grey off to the right of the crossing, where a row of small building shapes steps down the edge of the field, and the left half of the diagram is mostly open ground and a long taxiway loop. The field elevation, 721 feet, sits with the coordinates under the PLN block in the lower corner. On a wall, that imbalance is the point: the eye lands on the X, then walks right into the detail.
The airport itself is about a mile northwest of the central business district of Pellston, a village in Emmet County, Michigan, sitting halfway between Petoskey and Cheboygan and close to the tourist centers of Mackinaw City and Mackinac Island. The 35,000 square foot passenger terminal, themed as a northern lodge, was constructed in 2003 to a design by architect Paul W. Powers. As of 2022 there were 32 aircraft based on the field, which covers 1,675 acres. It is a print for people who fly north, or drive north, and know the shape of the trip.
In your chosen colorway, it hangs well on its own or in a set. Pair it with Sault Ste. Marie or Alpena if you are building a northern Michigan wall.
Pellston (PLN) print, common questions
How many runways does PLN have, and how are they arranged on the print?
Two. The diagram shows runway 14/32 and runway 05/23 crossing near the middle of the field to form a broad X, with 14/32 running upper left to lower right and 05/23 running lower left to upper right.
How long is the longest runway at Pellston Regional/Emmet County?
Runway 14/32 is the longest at 6,513 feet by 150 feet, asphalt. The second runway, 05/23, measures 5,401 feet by 150 feet, also asphalt.
Where is the airport, and what is the field elevation?
It is at Pellston, Michigan, roughly a mile northwest of the village's central business district in Emmet County, near the top of the Lower Peninsula. Field elevation is 721 feet, and that number is printed with the coordinates in the lower corner of the sheet.
Is the diagram accurate to the published layout?
The runways, their crossing angle and their published proportions come from published runway data for the field, along with the taxiway and apron shapes on the east side. It is a design piece rather than a navigation chart, so fine details may be simplified or omitted. Nothing on it should be used for flight planning.
What does PLN stand for?
PLN is the three letter identifier for Pellston Regional/Emmet County, the code you see on a bag tag or a boarding pass. It is set in large type at the bottom of the print, above the city and state line.
What sizes are available, and does it work as a gift?
It is made to order in a range of standard wall sizes, in the colorway you choose, so you can match a hallway, an office or a hangar office. It reads as a gift for anyone with a connection to northern Michigan: a pilot who has shot the approach here, a family with a place near the straits, or a crew member who works the field.
