KFCS field & runways
Butts AAF (Fort Carson), Fort Carson, Colorado. Field elevation 5841 ft. Class D airspace. Towered. Private use. Magnetic variation 8.0°E on record, 7.3°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 0.08°/year west — about 1° every 12 years — which is why runway numbers eventually stop matching their pavement.
