Nevada airport map prints

Nevada is basin and range: long dry valleys between north-south mountains, with airports on the valley floors. Harry Reid International at Las Vegas sits at 2,183 feet with four paved runways, the longest 14,835 feet, the longest in the state. Reno/Tahoe International lays three runways at 4,415 feet, the longest 11,001, and Reno/Stead runs 9,000 at 5,050. Out along the highways the county fields are long and high: Elko Regional 7,454 feet at 5,140, Winnemucca Municipal 7,000 at 4,308, Battle Mountain 7,300 at 4,536, Tonopah 7,160 at 5,430, and Ely/Yelland Field, the highest paved public field, at 6,260 feet. Minden-Tahoe at 4,724 feet sits under the Sierra front, and the low end is the southeast desert: Perkins Field at Overton at 1,366 feet and Mesquite at 1,978.

Flying in Nevada

Flying in Nevada is desert heat, high valley floors and a mountain range on every horizon, with a few enormous runways and a lot of empty ground. The prints show long strips set in wide basins. Published airport information guides each composition's relative runway lengths and bearings, with fine details simplified for wall art.
