PDX - Portland International Airport

Portland International Airport (PDX) sits just south of the Columbia River in northeast Portland, the primary gateway connecting the Pacific Northwest to the rest of the country and beyond. This metal print captures that reach, rendered from ADS-B flight tracking data. Every path is colorized by altitude across your chosen palette, from the low warm glow of final approach to the deep reds of cruising altitude.

This print visualizes all 7,177 flights recorded over 14 days beginning October 13, 2025, the 85th anniversary of the airport's opening on its current Columbia River site. Each one tracked, each one rendered: a piece of aviation wall art that fixes this specific moment in PDX's history in aluminum.
