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 Los Angeles'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.

Whiteman Airport Runway Diagram Print
Whiteman works from one runway: 12/30, 4120 feet long and 75 feet wide, asphalt. The print draws that single strip as one long diagonal falling from upper left to lower right, with the 12 threshold near the top of the frame and 30 planted at the bottom. Elevation is 1003 feet, the coordinates are 34.2593 N and 118.4134 W, and the published magnetic variation is 14E. That is the whole field, and the drawing does not pretend otherwise.
A one runway field has nowhere to hide, which is why this layout reads well as art. The composition is a stroke and a cluster. The runway and the taxiway beside it carry the long diagonal across the page, while everything built sits on the northeast side: a wide apron, a curved ramp edge, a column of hangar rows climbing toward the top of the frame, and a denser block of rows stacked to the lower right. Negative space does the rest. Roughly half the sheet stays empty, so the diagonal gets to be the only line in the room that matters. Geometry, designators and pavement shapes are plotted from published airport information for the current data cycle.
Hung alone it is a quiet piece. Hung as a set it is a Los Angeles basin wall, since Burbank and Van Nuys both sit within about ten kilometers of this ramp and their diagrams look nothing like this one. Formats are Fine Art Print, Framed Fine Art Print, Glossy Metal Print and Digital Download, and the drawing holds its proportions at every size because it is rendered as vector geometry, not scaled from a photograph.
Los Angeles (WHP) print, common questions
How many runways does Whiteman have?
One. Runway 12/30 measures 4120 feet by 75 feet with an asphalt surface, and it is the only runway on the print because it is the only runway on the field.
How high is Whiteman, and where is it?
The field elevation is 1003 feet. Whiteman is in Los Angeles, California, at 34.2593 N, 118.4134 W, and the print carries the coordinates and the elevation under the identifier.
What does WHP mean?
WHP is the airport identifier for Whiteman. It is the code used on the print, set in large type beneath the diagram alongside the city and state.
How accurate is the layout?
The diagram is plotted from published airport information, so runway 12/30, its published length and width, the taxiway alignment and the apron and hangar footprints follow the published layout. This is artwork made for a wall, and fine details may be simplified or omitted. Pavement markings, lighting and signage are the usual cases.
What sizes and finishes are available?
Choose Fine Art Print, Framed Fine Art Print, Glossy Metal Print or Digital Download, in the colorway you choose. Physical pieces are made to order. The Digital Download is a file you print yourself. On a field this simple the larger sizes pay off, because the 12/30 diagonal has room to run.
Does this work as a gift?
It works best for someone with a specific tie to this ramp: a pilot who trained here, a hangar tenant, a controller, or anyone who has spent mornings watching the 12 end. A general aviation field like Whiteman rarely shows up as wall art, which is most of the charm.
