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 Christiansted'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.

Henry E Rohlsen Airport Runway Diagram Print
Henry E. Rohlsen Airport works one runway, and it lies almost flat across the sheet: 10/28 at 10,002 by 150 feet, drawn as a long dark bar with the 10 threshold at the west end and 28 at the east, tilted just enough to keep the composition from going static. Field elevation is only 73 feet above sea level, which is what you would expect of a field set on the south coastal plain of St. Croix, and magnetic variation is 13W, a westerly figure that gives the plotted headings a different lean from most mainland diagrams. A parallel taxiway runs the full length on the south side and turns up to meet the runway at both ends, and the terminal, apron and support buildings gather in one block below the pavement, right of center. Everything else is open ground.
The field started as a wartime station. From November 8, 1941, to November 10, 1942, the Sixth Air Force based the 12th Bombardment Squadron here, flying B-18 Bolo aircraft on antisubmarine patrols, and while the military held it the place was called Benedict Airfield. On transfer to civilian control it was renamed for Alexander Hamilton, a former St. Croix resident, and it carried the name Alexander Hamilton International Airport until 1996. The present name honors Henry E. Rohlsen, a St. Croix native and one of the Tuskegee Airmen of World War II. Aero Virgin Islands ran the airport as a hub through the 1970s and 1980s.
That long runway does real work for an island field: it takes jets up to the size of a Boeing 747, and it has. A 747 carrying relief supplies landed here in 1995 after Hurricane Marilyn, and on November 11, 2018, an Antonov An-124 brought in building material for hurricane recovery housing. The airport covers 1,455 acres. As of 2026 its busiest domestic routes were Miami, Saint Thomas and San Juan, which is the shape of Caribbean flying: one long haul to the mainland and a set of short hops between islands.
On the wall the field is left to read plainly. Runway designators, lengths and widths follow the published figures, and taxiways and apron edges are reduced to flat geometry over the ground tone you choose. A single long runway with one parallel taxiway is a restrained drawing, mostly horizontal, and it hangs well over a doorway or a desk where a tall composition would not fit. This is original wall art composed from published airport information and available field depictions, printed to order.
Christiansted (STX) print, common questions
How many runways does Henry E. Rohlsen Airport have?
One. Runway 10/28 is 10,002 by 150 feet and it is asphalt. It runs roughly east to west, with a parallel taxiway along its south side on the print.
What is the longest runway at STX, and how high is the field?
The only runway, 10/28, is 10,002 feet long. Field elevation is 73 feet above sea level, and that figure is set in the margin of the print.
What does STX stand for and where is the airport?
STX is the IATA code for Henry E. Rohlsen Airport, six miles southwest of Christiansted on the island of St. Croix in the United States Virgin Islands, at roughly 17.70 north, 64.80 west.
Who was Henry E. Rohlsen?
A St. Croix native who flew with the Tuskegee Airmen during World War II. The airport carried his name from 1996; before that it was Alexander Hamilton International Airport, after the former St. Croix resident, and during the war it was Benedict Airfield.
Is the diagram accurate to the real airport?
Runway designators, lengths, widths and the relationship between the runway, its parallel taxiway and the terminal apron come from published airport information for the field. It is original wall art, not a chart: fine details may be simplified or omitted, including minor taxiway markings, signage and small structures, and it is not for navigation.
What sizes can I get, and does this work as a gift?
Each print is made to order in several sizes and finishes, on a ground tone you choose at checkout. It lands well with anyone who grew up on St. Croix, flies the island hops, or remembers the field under its older names.
