KBQR field & runways
Buffalo-Lancaster Rgnl, Buffalo, New York. Field elevation 752 ft. Non-towered (NON-ATCT). Magnetic variation 10.0°W on record, 10.5°W 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 0.029°/year east — about 1° every 34 years — which is why runway numbers eventually stop matching their pavement.
