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.

Fine Art Print: 8 x 10, 16 x 20, and 24 x 30 inches.

Made like something you keep.

The field itself

This is Dallas'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.

Dallas Executive Airport Runway Diagram Print

Dallas Executive reads as one long diagonal with a shorter bar dropped through it. Runway 13/31 runs 7,136 feet from the upper left of the sheet down toward the lower right, and runway 17/35 falls straight down the page across 3,800 feet, meeting the diagonal below center. The shorter strip is the wider one, 150 feet against 100 feet, so the two black bars carry noticeably different weights where they cross. It is a small field with one strong gesture, and that gesture is what survives being hung on a wall.

The airport was established in 1944, after the City of Dallas purchased land to serve general aviation needs in the southwest part of the city, and it carried the name Redbird Airport before becoming Dallas Executive in 2002. In 2016 the Commemorative Air Force established its headquarters here, occupying a hangar on the southeast side of the airfield, and that is the busy half of this composition: the gray apron and hangar blocks gather east of the crossing while the western side of the sheet stays open. In 2017 extensive work improved the existing runway, and in 2018 further work extended 13/31 so its safety areas and protection zones sat on airport land. Hang it near a Fort Worth field and the two read as a north Texas pair.

The sheet is plotted from published airport information, with the ends labeled 13, 31, 17 and 35 as published and the block beneath the identifier carrying DALLAS, TEXAS, the coordinates and the 661 foot elevation. Taxiways, aprons and hangar rows sit in soft gray so the two runways stay the loudest shapes in the frame, and in the colorway you choose that contrast is the first thing a viewer picks up from across a room.

Dallas (RBD) print, common questions

How many runways does Dallas Executive have?

Two. Runway 13/31 measures 7,136 by 100 feet and runway 17/35 measures 3,800 by 150 feet, both concrete surfaces, and the print shows them crossing as a long diagonal and a shorter vertical bar.

How long is the main runway at RBD?

7,136 feet, which is runway 13/31, the longest at the field and the dominant black line running corner to corner on the print.

What is the field elevation, and where is the airport?

661 feet, printed under the identifier in the lower corner. Dallas Executive sits about six miles southwest of downtown Dallas in Dallas County, Texas, and the sheet lists the coordinates alongside the elevation.

What does RBD stand for?

RBD is the three letter identifier for Dallas Executive Airport. The field was known as Redbird Airport before it took the Dallas Executive name in 2002.

Is the layout accurate to the published airport diagram?

The runway geometry is plotted from published airport information, so the crossing of 13/31 and 17/35 sits where the published data places it, at the stated lengths and widths. It is a design piece rather than a navigation chart, so fine details may be simplified or omitted. Markings, lighting and signage are the usual examples.

What sizes and finishes are offered, and does it work as a gift?

Choose the colorway and physical size for a Fine Art Print, Framed Fine Art Print or Glossy Metal Print, with a Digital Download available separately. It lands well with anyone who logged hours at a field that has served general aviation since 1944, from student pilots to warbird crowds.
