KCEA field & runways
Cessna Acft Fld, Wichita, Kansas. Field elevation 1378 ft. Non-towered (NON-ATCT). Magnetic variation 8.0°E on record, 2.9°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 0.073°/year west — about 1° every 14 years — which is why runway numbers eventually stop matching their pavement.
