Absolutely BEAUTIFUL launch (I'd say the most beautiful launch I've ever seen).  Arrow straight (somewhat unusual from my experiences with winged rockets with lots of stuff sticking out), but out slightly at an angle so you could see the top of the jet as it climbed skywary...just a breathtakingly beautiful flight.  Ejection a bit late and very small zipper (giant chute likely didn’t help).
