KSXK field & runways
Sioux County Rgnl, Maurice, Iowa. Field elevation 1409 ft. Non-towered (NON-ATCT). Magnetic variation 2.0°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 0.059°/year west — about 1° every 17 years — which is why runway numbers eventually stop matching their pavement.
