Description
A runway diagram map print of Rapid City Regional Airport (RAP), 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 Rapid City'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.

Rapid City Regional Airport Runway Diagram Print
Rapid City Regional Airport works two runways of very different character, and this print plots both to scale from the published runway data. Runway 14/32 is the long one, 8,701 feet by 150 feet, laid in concrete. Runway 05/23 is a short asphalt strip at 3,601 feet by 75 feet. The field sits at 3,204 feet of elevation, high plains ground on the edge of the Black Hills, with the magnetic variation of 8E noted small in the corner the way a chart carries it. One heavy line and one light one on the same sheet is a composition most airports do not hand you.
The airport is nine miles southeast of Rapid City, in Pennington County, and it is the closest commercial field to Mount Rushmore and the main gateway to the Black Hills and western South Dakota. Rapid City has had a municipal airport since 1924, first near the railroad tracks along East North Street, dedicated as Halley Field in 1929. In 1937 the municipal airport moved to what is now Ellsworth Air Force Base, then relocated to the present site in 1950. It took the name Rapid City Regional Airport in 1980, opened its current terminal in November 1988, and the original 1950 terminal came down in 2016.
In 2023 the field handled 702,581 passengers across 44,743 aircraft operations, with 124 aircraft based there. In 2026 Denver was the busiest route, measured over the twelve months ending in May, and every August the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally pulls extra service in, as it did when United brought back a seasonal San Francisco flight for the 2024 rally. None of that shows up in the drawing. What shows up is the shape: the runway designators, the relative proportions taken from published airport information and available field depictions, and the wide open ground around them, set on a tone you choose. It reads as a clear graphic mark from across a room and rewards a closer look, which makes it a pointed gift for anyone tied to RAP.
