Check out Dick Karl's Gear Up article "Disoriented, but not lost" in 5/2011 of FLYING Magazine. It's about the impact of changing declination/variation at airports. TPA in particular had to re-number thier runways becasue of its impact. Although not a big fan of Wikipedia, they do have a good article on this topic too. :lol:
