FD90 field & runways
Lafayette Landings, De Leon Springs, Florida. Field elevation 39 ft. Non-towered (NON-ATCT). Private use. Magnetic variation 3.0°W on record, 7.1°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 0.071°/year west — about 1° every 14 years — which is why runway numbers eventually stop matching their pavement.
