W48 Essex Skypark
Unknown — not enough evidence to call a runway
We don't know, and saying so beats guessing. No D-ATIS feed here — a voice ATIS/AWOS may exist; check the frequency. ADS-B tracking just started here — traffic history is still building. Wind calm — no directional preference.

W48 field & runways
Essex Skypark, Baltimore, Maryland. Field elevation 14 ft. Non-towered (NON-ATCT). Magnetic variation 10.0°W on record, 11.1°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 0.014°/year east — about 1° every 71 years — which is why runway numbers eventually stop matching their pavement.
