No, the VOR is not on the runway centerline. It is several hundred feet
off to the side of the runway. Why they didn't use the runway heading for
this approach I don't know, but it could be for noise abatement,
obstruction clearance, or other reasons.


If they did that the MAP would be several hundred feet off to the side of
the runway.
