As the guys have already mentioned, having flight plan with the one and only waypoint be 1 mile from your destination YOU are going to have problems. PF3 on the other hand doesn't mind and will start vectoring you once you reach your last waypoint... should be fun!
As PF3 will vector to the FAF, this should not be a problem here, unless the wind changes :)

Even if the wind changes PF3 will handle the approach. :D

I don't know if my memory is getting worse as I get older...
...I just can't remember how it used to be!

Many years ago in the early 70's I flew into Amman from London with Allia The Royal Jordanian Airline in a very shaky 707. We flew right overhead the airport and there was a column of smoke blowing with the wind and the pilot literally spiralled down from about 10,000ft and landed with short finals. They obviously didn't have ILS installed. If they can do it, so can PF3 8-)
