Made like something you keep.

The field itself

This is Poughkeepsie'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.

Hudson Valley Regional Airport Runway Diagram Print

POU is a three runway field, and the print is built around the two that cross. Runway 06/24 runs corner to corner as the long diagonal, 5,001 by 100 feet of asphalt, and 15/33 comes down across it at 2,743 by 100 feet of asphalt and concrete. The two dark bars meet just above center and make a wide, slightly tilted X, with the numbers set in white at each of the four ends. West of the crossing sits the third runway, 07/25, a short turf strip 1,357 by 100 feet, rendered as a pale stippled bar at a shallower angle than the long diagonal. Taxiways and aprons stay soft grey underneath, so the eye goes to the X first and finds the small stuff later.

The field is county owned and public use, on State Route 376 in the Town of Wappinger, Dutchess County, about 4 miles south of downtown Poughkeepsie. It was built in the 1930s by the United States Department of Commerce and used for pilot training during the Second World War, when it was known as New Hackensack Field. In 1942 Winston Churchill landed here and was met by Franklin D. Roosevelt, who had driven over from Hyde Park. Scheduled flying came and went: airline service ended in 1990 when Stewart International Airport across the Hudson River began commercial operations, and in 1991 CommutAir returned briefly on a route that linked Buffalo, White Plains, Poughkeepsie, Burlington and Plattsburgh. The name Hudson Valley Regional came later, proposed in 2016 and approved by the Dutchess County Legislature.

As art, this one is easy to live with. A crossed pair reads as a graphic mark from across a room, and the elevation line (164 feet) and coordinates sit quietly under the POU letterform in the lower right. It is plotted from published airport information, printed on demand, and the airport ident does the talking, which makes it a straightforward gift for anyone who trained, based an aircraft or logged circuits here.

Poughkeepsie (POU) print, common questions

How many runways does POU have?

Three, and all three are on the print. Published data lists 06/24 at 5,001 by 100 feet (asphalt), 15/33 at 2,743 by 100 feet (asphalt and concrete) and 07/25 at 1,357 by 100 feet (turf).

What is the longest runway at Hudson Valley Regional?

Runway 06/24 at 5,001 feet, 100 feet wide. It is the long diagonal that carries the print, running lower left to upper right.

Where is POU, and what does the code mean?

It sits on State Route 376 in the Town of Wappinger, Dutchess County, New York, about 4 miles south of the central business district of Poughkeepsie, at 164 feet of field elevation. The airport is sometimes called Poughkeepsie Airport, which is where the code POU comes from.

How accurate is the diagram?

The layout is plotted from published runway data for the field: designators, relative lengths, widths and how the pavement sits together. It is a design print rather than a navigation chart, so fine details may be simplified or omitted. Markings, lighting, signage and small service pavement are the usual examples.

What sizes are available?

Several standard portrait sizes, printed to order. The composition holds up small because the crossed runways stay legible, and the colorway you choose sets whether the field reads bright or dark on the wall.

Does this work as a gift for a pilot?

Yes. It is specific enough to mean something to someone who flew out of this field and clean enough to hang in a room that has nothing to do with aviation. The ident, city, coordinates and elevation are all on the sheet.
