KCFE field & runways
Buffalo Muni, Buffalo, Minnesota. Field elevation 968 ft. Non-towered (NON-ATCT). Magnetic variation 1.0°E on record, 0.3°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 0.043°/year west — about 1° every 23 years — which is why runway numbers eventually stop matching their pavement.
