KTIW field & runways
Tacoma Narrows, Tacoma, Washington. Field elevation 295 ft. Class D airspace. Towered. Magnetic variation 20.0°E on record, 14.8°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 0.123°/year west — about 1° every 8 years — which is why runway numbers eventually stop matching their pavement.
| Runway | True | Magnetic | Number | Length | Surface | Pattern | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 17 | 187.0° | 172.1° | matches rule gives runway 18 in ~23 yr | 5,002 ft | ASPH | left | ILS |
| 35 | 7.0° | 352.1° | matches rule gives runway 36 in ~23 yr | 5,002 ft | ASPH | right |
