6D9 field & runways
Iosco County, East Tawas, Michigan. Field elevation 605 ft. Non-towered (NON-ATCT). Magnetic variation 8.0°W on record, 7.6°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 0.01°/year east — about 1° every 100 years — which is why runway numbers eventually stop matching their pavement.
