Narrative:

I was #2 of 3 for approach. I was distraction by fact that #1 had not reported on ground at ays. ATC asked me to verify #1 on ground by calling unicom. By the time I verified #1 on ground; I was too close in to make approach. I returned to IAF but did not get set up properly for approach. Was cleared for approach but it did not go well from beginning. Meanwhile; #3 was in hold waiting for me to land. My #1 mistake was even trying to make the approach since I never was really set up well. As I could see the approach was a disaster; I declared a missed approach and began to climb and return to IAF. While I was above the cloud deck; I climbed above the published missed approach instructions; therefore; conflicting with aircraft #3's hold altitude. Although there was no close call; I was clearly wrong in not following the missed approach altitude. This resulted in ATC having to have #3 climb back to 4000 ft while I went back to IAF and once again shot the approach. The end result was everyone safely landed but I sure messed things up for a few mins. In looking back; I should have not even tried that approach since I was not really set up for it and I should have been much more aware of missed approach altitude. I allowed myself to be distraction and everything went downhill from there.

Title: AA5 (F11) PLT BECOMES DISORIENTED DURING REPEATED ATTEMPTS TO FLY ILS RWY 18 IAP TO AYS. LOSS OF SEPARATION WITH ACFT HOLDING AT THE FAF OCCURS DURING MISSED APCH.

Narrative: I WAS #2 OF 3 FOR APCH. I WAS DISTR BY FACT THAT #1 HAD NOT RPTED ON GND AT AYS. ATC ASKED ME TO VERIFY #1 ON GND BY CALLING UNICOM. BY THE TIME I VERIFIED #1 ON GND; I WAS TOO CLOSE IN TO MAKE APCH. I RETURNED TO IAF BUT DID NOT GET SET UP PROPERLY FOR APCH. WAS CLRED FOR APCH BUT IT DID NOT GO WELL FROM BEGINNING. MEANWHILE; #3 WAS IN HOLD WAITING FOR ME TO LAND. MY #1 MISTAKE WAS EVEN TRYING TO MAKE THE APCH SINCE I NEVER WAS REALLY SET UP WELL. AS I COULD SEE THE APCH WAS A DISASTER; I DECLARED A MISSED APCH AND BEGAN TO CLB AND RETURN TO IAF. WHILE I WAS ABOVE THE CLOUD DECK; I CLBED ABOVE THE PUBLISHED MISSED APCH INSTRUCTIONS; THEREFORE; CONFLICTING WITH ACFT #3'S HOLD ALT. ALTHOUGH THERE WAS NO CLOSE CALL; I WAS CLRLY WRONG IN NOT FOLLOWING THE MISSED APCH ALT. THIS RESULTED IN ATC HAVING TO HAVE #3 CLB BACK TO 4000 FT WHILE I WENT BACK TO IAF AND ONCE AGAIN SHOT THE APCH. THE END RESULT WAS EVERYONE SAFELY LANDED BUT I SURE MESSED THINGS UP FOR A FEW MINS. IN LOOKING BACK; I SHOULD HAVE NOT EVEN TRIED THAT APCH SINCE I WAS NOT REALLY SET UP FOR IT AND I SHOULD HAVE BEEN MUCH MORE AWARE OF MISSED APCH ALT. I ALLOWED MYSELF TO BE DISTR AND EVERYTHING WENT DOWNHILL FROM THERE.
