W16 field & runways
First Air Fld, Monroe, Washington. Field elevation 50 ft. Non-towered (NON-ATCT). Magnetic variation 20.0°E on record, 14.9°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 0.124°/year west — about 1° every 8 years — which is why runway numbers eventually stop matching their pavement.
| Runway | True | Magnetic | Number | Length | Surface | Pattern | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 25 | 271.9° | 257.0° | runway 26 by the rule today · 7.0° past | 2,087 ft | ASPH | left | |
| 7 | 91.9° | 77.0° | runway 8 by the rule today · 7.0° past | 2,087 ft | ASPH | right |
