W87 field & runways
Buzzwick, Carleton, Michigan. Field elevation 609 ft. Non-towered (NON-ATCT).
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 0.006°/year west — about 1° every 167 years — which is why runway numbers eventually stop matching their pavement.
