Swift Displays

I never saw it but I was told that, if a Swift was held in the vertical during a display, with some slight -ve G, and the relight button was pressed, flames would come out of numerous different vents and holes on the outside surface. Not as impressive as the F 111 ignited fuel dump but maybe useful in the 50s?
