Made like something you keep.

The field itself

This is Lancaster'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.

General William J Fox Airfield Runway Diagram Print

General William J Fox Airfield has one runway, 6/24, and the print gives it the whole upper half of the sheet. It runs 7,201 by 150 feet of asphalt, plotted from published airport information as a single unbroken bar climbing left to right across the paper. Nothing crosses it. There is no X, no V, no parallel twin. That is the entire argument of this piece: one long line, held at an angle, with a lot of quiet space above and below it.

Underneath the bar, the taxiways and apron shapes gather toward the right side, a loose cluster of hangar blocks and tie down rows that thins out as your eye travels back down the runway toward the 6 end. The imbalance is the interesting part. Most of the field's built area sits within the last third of the picture, so the left side reads as pure line and the right side reads as texture. Hang it where a viewer can stand close, because the small stuff rewards that.

The airfield is county owned and public, sits five miles northwest of Lancaster in Los Angeles County, and serves the Antelope Valley. Locally it is Fox Field, named for Brigadier General William J. Fox, described in the record as a Marine war hero, a movie stunt man, the first Los Angeles County engineer and, for 20 years after his retirement, a cowboy. By 1983 Mojave Airlines was flying from the field to Los Angeles, San Diego, Ontario and Mammoth Yosemite Airport with Beechcraft C99 turboprops.

At 2,351 feet of elevation, this is high desert flying, and the diagram carries that plainly: sparse, wide, unhurried. It suits a hallway or an office wall better than a crowded gallery arrangement, and it holds its geometry in whichever colorway you choose.

Lancaster (WJF) print, common questions

How many runways does WJF have?

One. Runway 6/24 is the single runway at General William J Fox Airfield, and the print shows it as one diagonal strip with no intersecting runway.

How long is the runway at Fox Field?

7,201 feet long and 150 feet wide, asphalt. That length is why the runway spans nearly the full width of the composition.

Where is WJF and what does the code mean?

WJF is the identifier for General William J Fox Airfield at Lancaster, California, five miles northwest of the city in Los Angeles County. The field elevation is 2,351 feet above sea level, which is printed on the sheet along with the coordinates.

Is the layout accurate to the published airport diagram?

The runway, taxiways and apron areas are plotted from published runway data for the field, so the angle, proportions and relative positions follow the published layout. Fine details may be simplified or omitted: lighting, markings, signage and smaller pavement features are reduced so the drawing stays readable at wall size. Treat it as a designed diagram, not a navigation document.

What sizes are available?

Several print sizes, from desk scale up to statement size, each made to order. Because the layout is one long diagonal, the wider sizes give the runway the most room to breathe. Every print is made to order in the colorway you choose.

Does this work as a gift?

It lands well for anyone who trained, based an aircraft, or worked out of Fox Field, and for Antelope Valley locals generally. The identifier and city block along the bottom edge makes it read as personal rather than decorative.
