Unknown — not enough evidence to call a runway

We don't know, and saying so beats guessing. No D-ATIS feed here — a voice ATIS/AWOS may exist; check the frequency. ADS-B tracking just started here — traffic history is still building. Weather observation is 1522 minutes old — treat with caution.

KINS field & runways

Creech AFB, Indian Springs, Nevada. Field elevation 3134 ft. Class D airspace. Towered. Private use. Magnetic variation 15.0°E on record, 11.2°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 0.082°/year west — about 1° every 12 years — which is why runway numbers eventually stop matching their pavement.

Runway data from the FAA NASR 01 Oct 2026 cycle. Where NASR locates both thresholds, the true heading is the bearing between them rather than NASR's whole-degree alignment. Magnetic is that heading against *today's* declination from WMM2025, not the field's variation of record — so it can differ from the chart by the gap between the two shown above. The number painted on the runway is the one ATC uses.
Runway	True	Magnetic	Number	Length	Surface
13	146.0°	134.8°	matches rule gives runway 14 in ~3 yr	5,476 ft	ASPH
26	272.3°	261.1°	matches rule gives runway 27 in ~47 yr	9,002 ft	ASPH
31	326.0°	314.8°	matches rule gives runway 32 in ~3 yr	5,476 ft	ASPH
8	92.3°	81.1°	matches rule gives runway 9 in ~47 yr	9,002 ft	ASPH
