TIST field & runways
Cyril E King, Charlotte Amalie, Virgin Islands. Field elevation 24 ft. Class C airspace. Towered. Magnetic variation 13.0°W on record, 14.1°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 0.066°/year west — about 1° every 15 years — which is why runway numbers eventually stop matching their pavement.
| Runway | True | Magnetic | Number | Length | Surface | Pattern | Notes |

| 28 | 267.4° | 281.6° | matches rule gives runway 29 in ~52 yr | 7,000 ft | ASPH | left |
