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.

Dimensions

Fine Art Print: 8 x 10, 16 x 20, and 24 x 30 inches.

Made like something you keep.

The field itself

This is San Luis Obispo'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 Luis Obispo County Regional Airport Runway Diagram Print

SBP prints as one long diagonal and one short level bar. Runway 11/29 is the long one, 6,101 feet by 150 feet of asphalt, and it runs from the upper left of the sheet down to the lower right, taking the whole frame with it. Runway 7/25 is much shorter at 2,500 feet by 100 feet, drawn as a level bar off to the left, its 25 end stopping just shy of the long runway rather than crossing it. Two strips, one steep and one flat, on a field that sits at 212 feet.

In 1933, Pacific Seaboard Air Lines flew twice daily each way along the coast, calling at Santa Maria, San Luis Obispo and Monterey on the run between Los Angeles and San Francisco. The county field itself opened in 1939 with dirt runways and one small hangar, and in 1943 the Navy began using it as a training center for the Pacific Fleet. In 1987 the airport was dedicated as McChesney Field, in honor of Leroy E. McChesney. A new passenger terminal opened in 2017 at the north end of the airfield.

On a wall, the appeal is the imbalance. The long diagonal cuts corner to corner, the short bar holds a quiet horizontal underneath it, and the gray apron, taxiway loops and hangar rows gather in bands on both sides of the big runway. The layout is drawn to scale from published airport information, so the long strip keeps its lean and the short strip keeps its proportion against it. The numerals 11, 29, 7 and 25 sit at the ends as published, and the block at lower right carries the identifier, the city, the coordinates and the field elevation.

San Luis Obispo (SBP) print, common questions

How many runways does SBP have, and how are they arranged on the print?

Two. Runway 11/29 is the long diagonal that runs upper left to lower right, and runway 7/25 is the short level bar to the left of it, with its 25 end stopping just short of the long runway rather than crossing it.

How long is the main runway at San Luis Obispo County Regional?

Runway 11/29 is 6,101 feet long and 150 feet wide, asphalt. Runway 7/25 is 2,500 feet by 100 feet, also asphalt, which is why the two read so differently on the sheet.

Where is the airport, and how high is the field?

The field elevation is 212 feet, and the airport sits southeast of downtown San Luis Obispo, California, along Broad Street at Aero Drive. The coordinates printed under the identifier are 35.2373 N, 120.6426 W.

What does SBP mean?

SBP is the three-letter identifier for San Luis Obispo County Regional, the code you see on a bag tag or a flight plan. It is set in large type at the lower right of the print, with the city and state below it.

How closely does the print follow the published layout?

It follows published runway data for the field: two runways, their relative lengths and widths, the angle between them and the runway end numerals. It is a print, not a chart, so fine details like markings, lighting, signage and smaller structures may be simplified or omitted to keep it readable from across a room.

Does this work as a gift for a pilot from San Luis Obispo?

It tends to land well with anyone who trained here, flies in and out of the field, or grew up under the pattern. Each one is made to order, and the colorway you choose sets whether it reads as a quiet neutral or as a graphic statement piece.
