I tried an ILS approach on Bardufoss RWY28 following the IFR charts that come default with the map. The localizer was showing way right when I was lined up on the runway. The IFR chart doesn't seem to indicate an offset, and if I tried to fly the localizer as indicated I would hit that small hill that's about a kilometer east of the field. Anyone else noticed this?

LOC28 at Bardufoss is offset 2.1° to the north, and the LOC is located to the south of the runway (as opposed to the usual location, along the extender centerline, ~300m beyond the threshold of the reciprocal rwy), so you will definitely get some unusual indications on your CDI when on the ground.

Appears to be 3 degrees north on the ME. Runway heading 291, loc 288. However in flying the Viper my loc was so far right I would have hit the terrain to the northeast of the threshold. Why would the localizer be offset to put aircraft closer to that hill rather than offset south where there's no terrain? A south offset makes more logical sense due to the terrain here.
