The Transport Canada Beech King Air C90A (registration C-FGXH, serial number LJ-1162) was en route to the Edmonton City Centre Airport (Blatchford Field–CYXD) from Winnipeg, Manitoba, via Regina, Saskatchewan, under instrument flight rules. After descending into the Edmonton terminal control area in instrument meteorological conditions, the aircraft was vectored for a straight-in LOC (BC) DME RWY 16 approach. Shortly after intercepting the localizer near the LEFAT intermediate fix, the aircraft descended about 400 feet below the minimum step-down altitude, and deviated 69° to the left of the final approach course. The crew conducted a missed approach eight nautical miles from the airport. During the missed approach, the airspeed decreased from 130 to 90 knots indicated airspeed, and the aircraft climbed above three successive altitudes assigned by air traffic control. The aircraft also deviated 43° from its assigned heading while being vectored to rejoin the localizer for Runway 16. Upon intercepting the localizer for the second time, the aircraft turned to the right of the approach centreline and descended below the minimum step-down altitude. After the aircraft descended below the cloud base, the crew gained sight of the airport, continued the approach visually, and landed at 1617 mountain daylight time.
