KLRJ field & runways
Le Mars Muni, Le Mars, Iowa. Field elevation 1197 ft. Non-towered (NON-ATCT). Magnetic variation 3.0°E on record, 2.1°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 0.06°/year west — about 1° every 17 years — which is why runway numbers eventually stop matching their pavement.
