KSDL field & runways
Scottsdale, Scottsdale, Arizona. Field elevation 1510 ft. Class D airspace. Towered. Magnetic variation 12.0°E on record, 9.6°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 0.076°/year west — about 1° every 13 years — which is why runway numbers eventually stop matching their pavement.
