KAXS field & runways
Altus/Quartz Mountain Rgnl, Altus, Oklahoma. Field elevation 1433 ft. Non-towered (NON-ATCT). Magnetic variation 5.0°E on record, 4.1°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 0.077°/year west — about 1° every 13 years — which is why runway numbers eventually stop matching their pavement.
