Made like something you keep.

The field itself

This is Yakutat'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.

Yakutat Airport Runway Diagram Print

Yakutat Airport has two runways, and both are 150 feet wide, which is what makes this print read heavier than the size of the town would suggest. Runway 11/29 is the longer at 7,732 feet and is asphalt; 02/20 runs 6,475 feet in concrete. Plotted to scale from the published runway data, they sit on the sheet as two broad slabs set at close to a right angle to each other, not one strip and an afterthought. Field elevation is 40 feet, and the magnetic variation is 20E, an unusually large value, noted small in the corner the way a chart does it.

The scale makes sense once you know what built it. Yakutat Army Airfield went in here in 1940, part of the Army's long range defense program for Alaska, and the state runs the field now for a city and borough that has no road connection to the outside world at all. Flying is the road. Over the twelve months ending in May 2010, general aviation made up 68 percent of operations, and in 2020, over the twelve months ending in June, the three busiest routes off the field ran to Anchorage, Seattle and Juneau. This is also the airport where an Alaska Airlines 737 hit a bear on landing in November 2020, which tells you what kind of place the airport keeps company with. The drawing stays with the layout, composed from published airport information and available field depictions and set on a ground tone you choose, so it holds as a clean graphic mark from across a room.
