Maks AAF Runway Diagram Print

Maks AAF is a one runway field: 16/34, asphalt, 4,107 feet long and 100 feet wide, sitting at 330 feet of elevation at Fort Polk, Louisiana. That single strip is the whole composition, and it is why this print reads so cleanly from across a room.

In the artwork the runway runs as one long diagonal, upper left to lower right, with the 16 numbers at the top and 34 at the bottom. Everything else gathers on one side of it. A broad apron fills the lower right quadrant, two taxiways branch off the runway and meet it in a shallow Y, and a row of buildings steps down the outer edge of the ramp in a darker tone. A smaller paved area sits off on its own near the 16 end, up in the empty top left corner. The rest of the sheet is left open, so the line has room to breathe.

Geometrically this is a quiet piece: one stroke, one cluster of structure, a lot of negative space. It hangs well on its own and it pairs naturally with other Louisiana fields, so if you are building a wall around this part of the state, the sprawling multi runway layout at Alexandria or the coastal plan at Lake Charles make good companions. Coordinates, elevation and the POE identifier are set in the lower corner, and the magnetic variation of 2E is the small offset between the runway's painted numbers and grid north. Sizes and finishes are chosen at checkout, and each physical piece is made to order in the colorway you choose.

Fort Polk (POE) print, common questions

How many runways does Maks AAF have?

One. Runway 16/34 is the only runway at the field, and it is the single dark line you see crossing the print on the diagonal.

How long is the runway at POE?

4,107 feet long and 100 feet wide, with an asphalt surface. Those proportions are what give the print its long, thin stroke rather than a chunky bar.

Where is Maks AAF, and what is its elevation?

It is at Fort Polk in western Louisiana, near 31.0448 degrees north and 93.1916 degrees west, at 330 feet of elevation. The coordinates and elevation are printed in the lower corner of the artwork.

What does POE mean?

POE is the three letter identifier for this field in published airport information, and it is the code set in large type at the bottom of the print. The runway label 16/34 refers to the approximate magnetic headings of the two runway ends, about 160 and 340 degrees.

How accurate is the layout?

The runway, taxiways, apron and structures are plotted from published airport data, so the shapes and their relationships to each other follow the published layout. It is a piece of artwork rather than a navigation chart, and fine details may be simplified or omitted. Markings, lighting and signage are examples of what gets left out.

Does this work as a gift?

Yes, particularly for anyone with a connection to Fort Polk or to this airfield. It is offered as a Fine Art Print, a Framed Fine Art Print, a Glossy Metal Print or a Digital Download, so you can match a framed piece to an existing wall or send the file if you need it quickly.
