Yes, this is exactly what I did to fly a J615ST at Red Glare back in spring. I just mounted the rocket on the rail and disassembled the aft end to get the igniter in while sitting on the ground next to it.5. I have left aft closures loose before and inserted igniters at the pad for moonburners. Having a small table and chair on the range side of the flight line certainly makes it easier. Wouldn’t that work for aerospike motors as well?
