The field itself

This is Salisbury'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.

Salisbury-Ocean City Wicomico Regional Airport Runway Diagram Print

Two runways cross near the center of the SBY diagram and open into a wide X. Runway 14/32 is the long one at 6,400 feet, running from upper left to lower right; 05/23 cuts the other way at 5,000 feet. Both are 100 feet wide, so the two dark bars carry almost the same weight on the page and neither one wins. Each end is labeled at the tip of its bar, and the field elevation, 53 feet, sits in the corner block under the identifier.

Wicomico County and the City of Salisbury started building the field in 1940 with the Works Progress Administration, and it opened in 1943 before being leased to the U.S. Navy as a training base through 1945. The Maryland State Police set up a medevac helicopter base here in 1978. Piedmont Airlines made Salisbury its primary operating base after 1993, and the Richard A. Henson Terminal, a 26,000 square foot building, opened in 1990. Scheduled flights ran from Salisbury to Washington until 2008 and to Baltimore until 2009, and the airport sits about five miles southeast of downtown, centrally placed on the Delmarva Peninsula.

The built-up side of the sheet sits west of the crossing: apron, terminal and hangar rows in soft gray, with taxiway loops rendered as thin outlines that give the X something to sit inside. A second, smaller cluster of buildings sits below the crossing, off by itself on a stub taxiway. The rest of the paper is left open, which is what lets the two bars hold a wall. Runway 14/32 reached its published 6,400 feet after a 1,000 foot extension finished in 2011, and that extra reach is part of why the crossing lands a little above the middle of the composition rather than dead center.

Salisbury (SBY) print, common questions

How many runways does SBY have?

Two. Runway 14/32 is 6,400 feet long and 05/23 is 5,000 feet, and both are 100 feet wide. On the print they cross near the middle and form a wide X.

How long is the main runway at Salisbury?

6,400 feet. That is runway 14/32, the longer of the two, surfaced as asphalt and concrete. It got there after a 1,000 foot extension completed in 2011.

Where is the airport, and what does SBY mean?

SBY is the identifier for Salisbury-Ocean City Wicomico Regional, in unincorporated Wicomico County, Maryland, roughly five miles southeast of downtown Salisbury on the Delmarva Peninsula. Field elevation is 53 feet.

Is the diagram accurate to the published layout?

The runway lengths, widths and crossing angle come from published airport data, and that data guides the relative runway geometry on the sheet. It is a design piece rather than a navigation chart, so fine details may be simplified or omitted. Markings, lighting and signage are examples of what gets left out.

What sizes can I get?

It comes in a range of sizes, from a small desk-scale piece up to a statement size for an office wall. The colorway you choose changes how much the gray apron and taxiway work reads against the two runway bars, so pick by the room. Each one is made to order.

Is this a good gift for someone from the Eastern Shore?

It works well for anyone who learned to fly at Salisbury, flew in and out of the terminal, or just grew up on the Delmarva Peninsula. The X of the two runways is recognizable from across a room, and the coordinates and elevation are printed under the SBY block, so the piece explains itself without a caption.
