Does anyone have any old documentation showing the TRUE bearing of the runway at Dunsfold ie NOT the QDM. I've tried wikipeadia but all it gives is runway designation 07/25.

Wouldn't an old document show a figure that was yet to take in the magnetic variation that has now taken effect?

Spekesoftly: that's exactly what I was after thanks.
HD: needs to e more accurate than that ie from an official survey, butr from the info of Spekesoftly, it would appear the runway is still 07/25 (var1.6 deg W)
