3T9 field & runways
Big Bend Ranch State Park, Presidio, Texas. Field elevation 4250 ft. Non-towered (NON-ATCT). Magnetic variation 9.0°E on record, 6.1°E today.
The FAA's variation of record is the number this field was surveyed against; the second is where north points now, from WMM2025. It is moving 0.074°/year west — about 1° every 14 years — which is why runway numbers eventually stop matching their pavement.
