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 Silver City'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.

Grant County Airport Runway Diagram Print
Grant County (SVC) carries four runways, and the print draws all four. The long one, 08/26, runs flat across the lower third of the sheet at 6803 feet by 100 feet, asphalt, inked darker than the rest and trailed by a thin taxiway loop and a low cluster of apron and building shapes. Everything else sits above that line and leans.
The three unpaved strips are what make this one worth hanging. Runway 12/30 falls from upper left to lower right and 03/21 climbs from lower left to upper right, so the two dirt runways cross in a wide X in the middle of the field. Straight through the center of that X drops 17/35, vertical on the page, crossing both diagonals and running down until its 35 end nearly touches the paved line below. The proportions are honest to the published figures: 5473 feet by 75 feet for 17/35, 4675 feet by 75 feet for 12/30, 4537 feet by 80 feet for 03/21. On a wall it reads less like a map and more like a drafting mark, a mast and two braces standing on a rule.
The corner of the sheet carries the identifier, the coordinates and ELEV 5446 FT, which is the sort of number that means something to anyone who has flown out of high desert in summer. Southwest New Mexico is a long way from most gallery walls, so this tends to land with people who have a reason to remember the place: pilots who trained in the area, families out of Silver City, and anyone whose flying life ran through Las Cruces or El Paso. Rendered clean on a wide margin, it hangs well on its own or in a row with other fields, and the colorway you choose sets whether it reads as a technical document or as a quiet graphic.
Silver City (SVC) print, common questions
How many runways does Grant County (SVC) have?
Four. Runway 08/26 is the paved one at 6803 feet by 100 feet, asphalt. The other three are unpaved: 17/35 at 5473 feet by 75 feet, 12/30 at 4675 feet by 75 feet, and 03/21 at 4537 feet by 80 feet. All four are drawn on the print.
How long is the longest runway at SVC?
6803 feet, on runway 08/26, with a width of 100 feet. It is the only asphalt surface on the field and the only strip drawn as a solid dark bar in the artwork.
How high is the field?
5446 feet of elevation, printed on the sheet beneath the coordinates. Grant County sits in southwest New Mexico at 32.6365 degrees north, 108.1564 degrees west.
What does SVC mean?
SVC is the identifier for Grant County, the airport serving Silver City, New Mexico. It is the code used on the print, set large in the lower corner with the city and state under it.
How accurate is the layout to the published airport diagram?
The runway positions, designators, relative lengths and crossing angles are plotted from published runway data for Grant County, so the wide X of the two dirt runways and the vertical strip through it sit where the published diagram puts them. This is composed as artwork, and fine details may be simplified or omitted. Pavement markings, lighting, signage and minor service roads are the usual omissions.
What formats does this come in, and does it work as a gift?
Fine Art Print, Framed Fine Art Print, Glossy Metal Print and Digital Download. Physical pieces are made to order; the download is a file you keep. It gives well to anyone tied to Silver City or to the high desert fields around it, since the four runway shape is specific enough that they will recognize it before they read the code.
