The field itself

This is Stuart'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.

Witham Field Runway Diagram Print

Witham Field runs three runways, and the print draws all three: 12/30 at 5,828 feet, 16/34 at 5,000 feet, and 07/25 at 4,653 feet, each 100 feet wide. On the sheet they do not sit parallel to anything. Runway 12/30 falls from the left edge down toward the lower right, 07/25 climbs from the left across to the upper right, and 16/34 drops from the top of the field to meet 12/30 near the bottom right corner. The three strokes enclose a big open triangle of taxiway and apron, which is what gives this diagram its shape on a wall: a hard geometric figure with one wide, quiet interior.

The field is barely above sea level, at 16 feet, and it sits a mile southeast of downtown Stuart in Martin County. The name comes from Paul "Homer" Witham, a Naval Aviation Pilot First Class and the first Naval Aviator from the city of Stuart to die in World War II. During the war the site served as a Navy training field, operating as an auxiliary to Naval Air Station Vero Beach for carrier-based and land-based fighter and light bomber crews. Some of that wartime geometry is still legible in the way the runways cut across each other rather than lining up.

Later chapters left marks too. Scheduled passenger service by Air Florida was running seven daily departures to West Palm Beach in 1984. Northrop Grumman downsized its Witham Field operation in 1994, returning much of the property to Martin County. None of that history is written on the print, but it explains why a small coastal field carries a runway pattern this ambitious.

Rendered as art, the layout is unusually easy to live with. The black runway strokes read first from across a room, the grey taxiways and hangar clusters in the lower left fill in as you get closer, and the identifier block sits quietly in the corner with the coordinates and elevation. It works over a desk, in a hallway, or anywhere a pilot, a controller, or someone who grew up near this field will recognize the shape before reading the letters.

Stuart (SUA) print, common questions

How many runways does Witham Field have?

Three. Runway 12/30 is the longest at 5,828 feet, 16/34 measures 5,000 feet, and 07/25 measures 4,653 feet. All three are 100 feet wide, and all three appear on the print.

Where is SUA and what does the code mean?

SUA is the identifier for Witham Field, a public-use airport about a mile southeast of downtown Stuart, in Martin County, Florida. The airport is also known as Martin County Airport. The print carries SUA, the city and state, and the field coordinates at 27.1817 degrees north, 80.2213 degrees west.

What is the field elevation?

16 feet. That number is printed under the coordinates on the print, and it is a fair description of the place: a low, flat coastal field with no terrain to fight.

How accurate is the diagram?

The runway pattern, relative lengths and orientations are plotted from published runway data for Witham Field, so 12/30, 16/34 and 07/25 sit at the published angles to each other. Fine details may be simplified or omitted. Pavement markings, lighting, signage, small structures and minor taxiway edges are reduced or left out so the shape of the field reads cleanly from across a room.

What sizes are available?

The print is made to order in several standard wall sizes, in the colorway you choose. Because the SUA layout is wide rather than tall, larger sizes give the open triangle between the runways room to breathe.

Does this work as a gift?

It lands well with anyone tied to Witham Field: local pilots, flight students, hangar owners, air show regulars, or someone who moved away from Stuart and still knows the sound of the pattern. Pick the colorway that suits their wall and the identifier does the rest.
