The field itself

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.

Tampa Executive Airport Runway Diagram Print

VDF is the identifier for Tampa Executive, a two-runway general aviation airport in unincorporated Hillsborough County, six nautical miles east of the central business district of Tampa. The print draws both runways in full. Runway 05/23, 5,000 ft long and 100 ft wide, cuts across the sheet on a long diagonal from the lower left up toward the upper right corner. Runway 18/36, 3,219 ft long and 75 ft wide, stands vertically down the left side. The two never meet on the page, so the field reads as an open angle rather than a crossed X, and the empty space between them is part of what makes the composition work.

Most of the built detail sits in the wedge those two runways frame: taxiway stems, a broad apron, and a long comb of small hangar rows stacked along the 18/36 side. That contrast is the reason this one hangs well. Two clean dark bars, a field of soft gray structure, then a lot of quiet paper around it. The field elevation is 21 ft, which the sheet notes under the coordinates along with the city line.

The airport was formerly known as Vandenberg Airport. Jules Vandenberghe, a Belgian immigrant, started a vegetable farm on this land, and his children later learned to fly and put an airstrip in on their father's farm. The field covers 411 acres and sits near the intersection of I-4 and I-75. For pilots who trained here, flew the Tampa Bay area, or keep an aircraft on the east side of town, the geometry is instantly readable. It also sets up a wall group: put it beside the Lakeland or St. Petersburg sheets and the difference in field shape does all the work.

Tampa (VDF) print, common questions

How many runways does Tampa Executive have, and how long are they?

Two. Runway 05/23 is 5,000 ft long and 100 ft wide, and runway 18/36 is 3,219 ft long and 75 ft wide. Both are asphalt, and both are drawn on this print.

Where is VDF, and what is the field elevation?

The field elevation is 21 ft. Tampa Executive is in unincorporated Hillsborough County, Florida, six nautical miles east of the central business district of Tampa, near the intersection of I-4 and I-75.

What does the code VDF mean?

VDF is the three-letter location identifier assigned to Tampa Executive Airport, and the airport does not have an IATA airport code. The identifier is the large type at the bottom of the sheet.

How accurate is the layout on this print?

The runways, taxiways and apron shapes are plotted from published airport information, so lengths, widths and relative positions follow that published data. This is artwork rather than a navigation document, and fine details may be simplified or omitted. Pavement markings, lighting symbols and small signage are the usual examples.

What sizes and formats is this available in?

It comes as a Fine Art Print, a Framed Fine Art Print, a Glossy Metal Print or a Digital Download, in a range of sizes. The diagonal run of 05/23 fills a portrait format well, so larger sizes keep the hangar rows along 18/36 legible. Physical pieces are made to order, and the digital option is a file.

Is this a good gift for a pilot who flies out of Tampa Executive?

Yes, especially for someone who trained or based an aircraft here, since the open angle between 05/23 and 18/36 is recognizable at a glance. Pick the size for the wall and the colorway you choose for the room.
