Model Jet Airplane!

I was with a group of people who fly remote control airplanes.  I had a rocket powered jet that I wanted to fly.  I lined it up on a runway and lit the fuse.  The plane started to turn around instead of going straight down the runway.  I nudged it with my foot to get it in the right direction. Then it took off and started flying.  There was some sort of malfunction and a parachute popped out of the jet except it was still flying.  It had a tendency to nose downward but I was able to correct it with my remote control.  It started flying very well.  Then it came rocketing down almost straight for me.  I was able to get it to swerve over and land it.  I landed the jet by nosing it up and then it stalled and I would repeat that until it gently landed.  The parachute was draped over the wings.
