it used to be 8/26 but its now 07/25 due to the earths rotation i believe but also been told when they re did the runway a few years ago it was changed? Someone may know the truth Smile

The earth is constantly moving in relation to the pole.

A lot of airfields have had their runways renumbered in the last few years.
