Hi, I remember asking Hawarden if I could fly a three mile final, and almost got it right at 3.1 miles... Tower informed me that I was almost in Liverpool airspace, and suggested I turn sharper to intercept. The VOR / GS looked Ok as did the PAPIs all the way down, so not much to do other than just sit there looking at my passenger taking some more photos.
As long as it looks Ok out of the window, the crossed needles will stay in the middle. You can't always say the same for the other way around.
