Narrative:
Flew ILS in marginal VFR conditions to runway 9 at mia. The runway 9 ILS glideslope exits the class B airspace after gritt for 2-3 miles and reenters later. Procedure is not contained in class B. This can be observed on class B chart at approximately 4.8 NM to iness where intercepting the glideslope takes you below 3;000 feet; bottom of class B at that point; and shortly thereafter re-enters. This is a known airspace error and airspace is yet to be corrected to contain the approach to the primary class B airport. Realign class B airspace to contain entire approach.
