Iowa airport map prints

Iowa is rolling farm country between two rivers, and its airports sit on the high ground between fields. Des Moines International lays two runways of nearly equal length, 9,004 and 9,001 feet, at 958 feet. Sioux Gateway at Brigadier General Bud Day Field pairs 9,002 feet with 6,401 at 1,099 feet, The Eastern Iowa Airport at Cedar Rapids runs 8,600 feet, and Waterloo Regional 8,399. The next tier is even: Fort Dodge Regional, Dubuque Regional above the Mississippi at 1,076 feet, Mason City Municipal, Southeast Iowa Regional at Burlington, Ottumwa Regional and Spencer Municipal all carry a main runway between 6,001 and 6,547 feet with a second one beside it. Muscatine Municipal on the Mississippi, the lowest paved public field, sits at 547 feet, and Sibley Municipal in the northwest corner, the highest, at 1,538 feet.

Flying in Iowa

Flying in Iowa is section lines and grain elevators, with airports laid out on the same square grid as the farms around them. Most fields are two runways set at an angle on open ground, which makes for clean, honest prints. Published airport information guides each composition's relative runway lengths and bearings, with fine details simplified for wall art.
