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 Isla de Vieques'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.

Antonio Rivera Rodriguez Airport Runway Diagram Print
VQS is a single runway field, and the artwork keeps it that way: one asphalt strip, 09/27, 4,294 feet long and 75 feet wide, cutting across the upper half of the sheet on a shallow diagonal from lower left to upper right. Nothing crosses it. The taxiway runs parallel underneath in a paler tone, tied to the runway by short connectors that break the gap into a row of long rectangles, and the apron and building shapes bunch together at the 27 end. The rest of the sheet is open space, which is the point: one clean line held high, with the identifier block sitting far below it.
The numbers are small and the composition stays honest about that. Elevation is 48 feet, published magnetic variation is 13W, and the print carries ELEV 48 FT under the coordinates 18.1348 N 65.4936 W. A field this size gives you geometry instead of clutter, so the tilt of the strip does the work on a wall, reading as one long stroke rather than a dense network of pavement.
Vieques itself is why that strip matters. The airport sits on the island of Vieques in Puerto Rico, and because a large amount of the island's yearly revenue comes from tourism, it plays an important part in the Vieques economy. In 1999, when anti-military demonstrators started arriving on the island, the airport saw a considerable increase to its normal yearly average of passengers. In 2005, plans were announced to expand this runway so the airport could take smaller jets, ahead of a code sharing service from San Juan that was never started, and the published runway data still measures 4,294 by 75 feet. Put this beside a diagram of a busier field and the contrast is the whole story.
Isla de Vieques (VQS) print, common questions
How many runways does VQS have?
One. Runway 09/27 is asphalt, 4,294 feet long and 75 feet wide, and it is the only strip on the field, which is why the artwork reads as a single diagonal line with open space around it.
How long is the runway at Antonio Rivera Rodriguez Airport?
4,294 feet, at a width of 75 feet. The print labels both ends: 9 at the west end, 27 at the east end, where the apron and terminal shapes sit.
What is the elevation of VQS?
48 feet above sea level. The artwork prints ELEV 48 FT in the lower corner with the coordinates 18.1348 N 65.4936 W, just under the identifier.
What does VQS mean and where is it?
VQS is the identifier for Antonio Rivera Rodriguez Airport, a public airport on the island of Vieques in Puerto Rico. It is the code set large in the lower right of the artwork.
How closely does the artwork follow the published layout?
The layout is plotted from published airport information for the cycle effective 2026-09-03: one runway, 09/27, at 4,294 by 75 feet, with the parallel taxiway, connectors and apron in their published positions. It is wall art first, so fine details may be simplified or omitted. Pavement markings, signage and lighting are the usual examples.
What formats does this VQS piece come in, and does it work as a gift?
It is offered as a Fine Art Print, a Framed Fine Art Print, a Glossy Metal Print or a Digital Download, in the colorway you choose, with sizes selected alongside the format. Physical pieces are made to order and the digital option is a file. It suits anyone with a Vieques connection: island regulars, visitors who arrived by air, and pilots who know the 09/27 approach by feel.
