Materials
Fine Art Print: pigment giclée printing on heavyweight 330 gsm (17 mil), 100% cotton Hot Press paper, on regularly calibrated giclée printers. The paper is acid-free and archival-grade, with a smooth matte surface and the high color gamut and black density that let a dark ground and fine linework keep their depth. Supplied unframed, with no added white margin, ready for your own frame.
Framed Fine Art Print: the same cotton fine art paper in a 1.25 inch solid wood frame. A white, acid-free, 4-ply mat with a 45-degree bevel and optical-grade, shatter-resistant clear acrylic (safer to ship than glass) are included. The print is mounted to foam core for a flat presentation, with a kraft paper dust cover and installed hanging wire on the back.
Glossy Metal Print: the image is transferred by dye sublimation into polymer-coated aluminum with a glossy white base. The 1.14 mm panel has a scratch- and water-resistant surface, with a hidden inset mount that positions it about 3/4 inch off the wall. Display indoors, away from direct sunlight.
Digital Download: a high-resolution JPEG for personal, non-commercial use. No physical paper, frame, or metal panel is included.
Dimensions
Fine Art Print: 8 x 10, 16 x 20, and 24 x 30 inches.
Framed Fine Art Print: 8 x 10, 16 x 20, and 24 x 30 inches, measured across the mat and acrylic area inside the frame. The mat sits within that area, so the visible image is about 6 x 8, 12 x 16, or 18 x 24 inches. The outside frame is larger than the listed size.
Glossy Metal Print: 8 x 10, 16 x 20, and 24 x 30 inches. During sublimation, 1/8 to 1/4 inch of the artwork may be cropped, so the printed edge can differ slightly from the preview.
Digital Download: a 7200 x 9000 pixel JPEG at 300 dpi for 24 x 30 inch printing. A digital add-on instead matches the selected physical size: 8 x 10, 16 x 20, or 24 x 30 inches at 300 dpi.
Made like something you keep.
The field itself
This is El Monte'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.

San Gabriel Valley Airport Runway Diagram Print
San Gabriel Valley Airport draws as a single runway and the apron that feeds it. Runway 1/19 measures 3,995 by 75 feet on asphalt, and in this print it runs as one uninterrupted dark strip from the lower left of the sheet to the upper right, with the numeral 1 set at the bottom end and 19 at the top. There is no second strip, no crossing pair, nothing to complicate the line. The whole composition rests on that one diagonal.
What fills the rest of the frame is the ground side of the field. Taxiway stubs step off the runway at intervals, and east of them the pavement widens into aprons with tight rows of hangars stacked like dashes, thickest at the north end and repeating again toward the south. That rhythm is the reason a small field like this works as artwork: the runway gives you one long confident stroke, the hangar rows give you texture, and the pale field around them gives the eye somewhere to rest. The identifier EMT sits in the lower corner with El Monte, California, the coordinates and ELEV 296 FT, so the piece reads as a document rather than decoration.
The field carries some history in its name. It was called El Monte Airport until the name changed to San Gabriel Valley Airport in 2014, and it serves El Monte in Los Angeles County. A national plan of integrated airport systems for 2019 through 2023 categorized it as a regional reliever general aviation facility, and in 2021 nearly all of its traffic was general aviation. It also groups well on a wall: set it near other Southern California fields such as Burbank or Long Beach and the EMT diagonal holds its own line against them.
El Monte (EMT) print, common questions
How many runways does San Gabriel Valley Airport have?
One. Runway 1/19 is 3,995 feet long and 75 feet wide with an asphalt surface, and the print shows that single strip running on a diagonal with no crossing runway.
Where is EMT and how high is the airport?
It is in El Monte, California, at 34.0860 degrees north and 118.0348 degrees west, with a field elevation of 296 feet. Those coordinates and that elevation are printed under the identifier in the lower corner.
What is EMT on this print?
EMT is the airport's three letter identifier, used here instead of the longer code so the piece stays readable at a distance. The field went by El Monte Airport until the name changed to San Gabriel Valley Airport in 2014.
How accurate is the layout?
The runway, taxiways, aprons and hangar footprints are plotted from published airport information for the current charting cycle, so proportions and orientation follow the published diagram. Fine details may be simplified or omitted. Painted markings, lighting symbols and small ground clutter are the usual things left out in favor of a clean read on a wall.
What sizes and finishes can I get?
The EMT artwork is offered as a Fine Art Print, a Framed Fine Art Print, a Glossy Metal Print and a Digital Download, in a range of sizes and in the colorway you choose. Physical pieces are made to order; the digital version is a file you download.
Is this a good gift for a pilot?
It suits anyone who learned to fly at El Monte, based an aircraft there or flew the pattern at a busy general aviation field. The single 1/19 strip is instantly recognizable to people who know it, and the identifier block gives non pilots the context.
