Louisiana airport map prints
Louisiana is low, wet and flat, and its airports are built on whatever will hold them. Louis Armstrong New Orleans International sits 3 feet above sea level with two runways, the longest 10,104 feet, and Lakefront on the shore of Lake Pontchartrain keeps three at 7 feet. Baton Rouge Metropolitan at Ryan Field runs three runways at 70 feet, and Lafayette Regional at Paul Fournet Field three at 41. The coast has Acadiana Regional at New Iberia with an 8,002 foot runway and a marked water lane, Houma-Terrebonne at 9 feet, and South Lafourche at Galliano at zero feet. Chennault International at Lake Charles holds the state's longest public-use runway, 10,702 feet, at 17 feet; Alexandria International runs 9,352, Shreveport Regional 8,348 at 258 feet, and Monroe Regional 7,504. The highest paved public field in the state, Arcadia-Bienville Parish, stands only 440 feet up.

Flying in Louisiana
Flying in Louisiana is bayou, river and Gulf, with airports on fill and levee ground a few feet above the water and long straight runways wherever the land is firm. A print of a Louisiana field is mostly about that flatness. Published airport information guides each composition's relative runway lengths and bearings, with fine details simplified for wall art.
