Your fine art print is made to order with pigment inks on heavyweight, 100% cotton Hot Press paper, a 330 gsm sheet with a high color gamut and deep black density. The acid-free, archival-grade paper has a smooth matte surface. Supplied unframed, ready for your own frame.
Shipping and Returns
Physical prints are made to order in 2 to 3 business days; shipping time is added on top and varies by your location and the method you choose. Standard shipping is free across the US.

The Digital Download is a JPEG at 300 dpi, sized for 24 by 30 inches. The digital add-on matches the selected physical print size at 300 dpi. Download links arrive by email and stay active for 30 days; save the file within that time and keep it for personal, non-commercial use. No physical item is shipped.

Digital downloads are non-refundable once delivered, except where required by law or where AirportPrints determines that a delivery failure or technical issue was caused by AirportPrints.
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 Austin'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 Marcos Regional Airport Runway Diagram Print
San Marcos Regional (HYI) carries three asphalt runways, and the print draws all three. Runway 08/26 is the long one at 6,330 feet, running nearly horizontal across the middle of the sheet with the 8 threshold at the left edge of the field. Runway 13/31, at 5,601 feet, cuts down through it on the diagonal from upper left to lower right. Runway 17/35, at 5,214 feet, stands close to vertical along the right side and crosses 08/26 near the 26 end. Each strip is 100 feet wide, which at print scale keeps the black bars thin rather than blocky.
The field has military roots. Before it was operated as a civilian airport it was known as Gary Air Force Base, and it was the site of the Gary Army Airfield. It is owned by the City of San Marcos and operated by Texas Aviation Partners. In 2023 the airport handled 91,849 aircraft operations, an average of 251 per day, with 219 aircraft based here. Light aircraft in that kind of volume are what three long runways set at wide angles are for, and the wind coverage those angles buy is the reason the diagram reads the way it does: open, generous, no wasted pavement.
As art the sheet is asymmetric in a useful way. The two crossings sit apart from each other instead of stacking into a tidy X, and the 31 and 35 ends nearly touch down at the lower right corner, which pulls the eye out toward the margin. Taxiways, the apron and the hangar rows sit in lighter gray below the long runway, so the black pavement stays the subject and the identifier block anchors the bottom right. Printed to order in the colorway you choose, it holds a wall on its own or beside sheets from other Texas fields such as San Antonio or Waco.
Austin (HYI) print, common questions
How many runways does San Marcos Regional have?
Three, and the print shows all three. Runway 08/26 is 6,330 by 100 feet, 13/31 is 5,601 by 100 feet, and 17/35 is 5,214 by 100 feet. All three are asphalt.
Where is the airport and what is its elevation?
It sits at 595 feet above sea level in Caldwell County, Texas, roughly 4 nautical miles east of the central business district of San Marcos. The elevation and the coordinates are set under the identifier at the bottom of the sheet.
What does the code HYI mean?
HYI is the three-letter location identifier for San Marcos Regional, and it is the code printed large on this sheet. The airport has no IATA designation, so HYI is the code you will see used for the field.
Is the runway layout accurate?
Yes, within the limits of a print. The runways are plotted from published airport information, drawn to scale, and labeled 8, 26, 13, 31, 17 and 35 as published. It is a design piece rather than a navigation chart, so fine details may be simplified or omitted. Markings, lighting and signage are not what this sheet is about.
What sizes can I get?
The diagram is offered in a range of standard wall sizes, printed to order in the colorway you choose. The larger sizes give the 13/31 diagonal room to breathe; the smaller ones work well in a stacked group.
Does this make a good gift?
It lands well with anyone who trained, based an aircraft or logged hours at San Marcos Regional, since the three crossing runways are recognizable on sight. Because each piece is made to order, it also works as a marker for a checkride, a first solo or a move away from Texas.
