The field itself

This is Greenville'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.

Greenville Downtown Airport Runway Diagram Print

Two runways, one intersection: that is the shape Greenville Downtown Airport puts on a wall. Runway 1/19 is 5,393 by 100 feet of asphalt running nearly top to bottom of the frame, and runway 10/28 is 4,000 by 80 feet running across it. They meet right of center, so the print reads as an off-balance cross rather than a tidy centered one, which is what keeps it interesting at a distance. The field sits at 1,048 feet of elevation in Greenville, South Carolina.

The gray around the black is the rest of the airport doing its work. Taxiway loops stack up on both sides of 1/19 like rungs, aprons open out to the northwest and southwest, and rows of hangars fan off the northeast corner. Greenville Downtown covers 385 acres, and the drawing shows how much of that acreage is pavement built to move light aircraft between the runways and the ramps. As of 2017, its general aviation traffic was heavier than that of any other general aviation airport in South Carolina, and the density of the taxiway network here explains where all of those movements go.

There is a long civil history under that pavement. The airport opened in 1928 as Greenville Municipal Airport, took its first airmail flight in 1930, and picked up Delta Air Lines service in 1945. Commercial airline flying later moved to Greenville-Spartanburg International when that airport opened in 1962, which is how this one settled into the general aviation role it holds now. The newer field sits northeast in Greer.

As art, the appeal is the restraint. Two black bars, a lace of gray taxiways, the identifier set large at the lower right with the coordinates and field elevation under it. Plotted from published airport information and offered in a range of sizes, it hangs well over a desk, in a hallway, or in a hangar office, and the colorway you choose sets whether it reads as quiet or graphic. For a pilot who trained at GMU or anyone who knows the Greenville skyline from the pattern, it lands better than a generic aviation print.

Greenville (GMU) print, common questions

How many runways does GMU have, and how long are they?

Two. Runway 1/19 is 5,393 by 100 feet and runway 10/28 is 4,000 by 80 feet, both asphalt. Both appear on the print, crossing just right of the center of the image.

Where is Greenville Downtown Airport?

In Greenville, South Carolina, about 3 miles east of the city center, at 34.8479 N, 82.3500 W. Field elevation is 1,048 feet, and that figure is printed under the identifier.

What does the code GMU mean?

GMU is the identifier for Greenville Downtown Airport. It is the code used on charts and flight plans, and it is the code set in large type on the print. The airport was known as GRL during its commercial airline years.

How accurate is the diagram?

The runways, taxiways, aprons and building footprints are plotted from published airport data for the current charting cycle, so runway proportions and the angle between 1/19 and 10/28 follow the published layout. It is a design print, not a navigation chart, and fine details may be simplified or omitted. Approach lighting, markings and signage are examples of what is left off.

What sizes and finishes are available?

Several standard sizes, printed to order, as a Fine Art Print, Framed Fine Art Print or Glossy Metal Print (Digital Download available separately). Larger sizes give the taxiway loops beside runway 1/19 room to read; smaller sizes lean on the two black runway bars for their impact.

Is this a good gift for a pilot?

It works well for anyone with a tie to the field: student pilots and instructors from the flight schools on the airport, hangar tenants, or someone who simply grew up watching traffic in the pattern here. Every print is made to order, and US shipping is free.
