Mine looks similar, kind of like a homework assignment from a Remedial Circle Coloring class. This is what 3090 NM, 224 gal of 100LL, 24 flights, 65 landings, 100 days and a 25 NM radius limit looks like.

Canada's rules are simply a 25NM radius from the airport you're based in. I don't have any controlled fields in mine, my base has 24hr advisory services but isn't technically controlled. We also have a requirement for a flight plan (or itinerary) for any flight more than 25 NM from departure airport, so the radius on the test area makes it so we don't have to file any flight plans.
Definitely some time burning there. Some serious testing as well. Probably the biggest deliverable in the testing was the figuring out the throttle, prop and mixture settings for the various stages of flight and the resulting air speeds, climb and glide rates, fuel burn and CHTs. The time burning provided a great opportunity for that, and the auto pilot made for some nice patterns.

Yep.
It is up to the DAR or FSDO agent. But you can ask. What we have done is pick out four airports 30-40 miles from the Base and ask for them to be our corners and permission to land at any airport in that box. Works
most of the time, if you put it in you written request form.
