The flight commenced from Winters Aire Park Airport Indus (CFY4), located in Alberta, Canada, with the Mini-Max 1500R Sport aircraft. As the aircraft departed, it initiated an enroute climb, ascending from an initial altitude of 3,370 feet above sea level to 4,066 feet above sea level, a vertical gain of 696 feet in just one minute, while covering a distance of one nautical mile. This rapid ascent allowed the aircraft to reach a suitable cruising altitude, where it leveled off and maintained a steady heading for four minutes, covering a distance of four nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached Chestermere (Kirkby Field) Airport (CFX8), it began its final approach to runway 36 from the south, maintaining a heading of 357.0 degrees at an altitude of 749 feet above ground level, approximately four nautical miles from the runway threshold. However, the pilot decided to execute a go-around at an altitude of 694 feet above ground level, followed by a second go-around at 716 feet above ground level. After the second go-around, the aircraft successfully landed on runway 36, which had a length of 2,079 feet. The touchdown was characterized by a good threshold height, with a threshold speed of 39 knots. The touchdown distance was 167 feet, with a touchdown speed of 37 knots and a touchdown rate of -264 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 59 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 1 knot from 269 degrees.
Following the successful landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, taking approximately two minutes to cover a distance of less than one nautical mile. The total flight distance was 9 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 13 minutes, with a fuel consumption of 1 pound. The landing distance was 453 feet, accounting for 22% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. Overall, the flight demonstrated a high level of proficiency and adherence to standard operating procedures.
