86NE field & runways
Orum Aerodrome, Blair, Nebraska. Field elevation 1323 ft. Non-towered (NON-ATCT). Private use. Magnetic variation 6.0°E on record, 2.2°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 0.063°/year west — about 1° every 16 years — which is why runway numbers eventually stop matching their pavement.
