A79 field & runways
Chignik Lake, Chignik Lake, Alaska. Field elevation 50 ft. Non-towered (NON-ATCT). Magnetic variation 19.0°E on record, 10.5°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 0.228°/year west — about 1° every 4 years — which is why runway numbers eventually stop matching their pavement.
