You can see a demonstration here. This is at the "Warbirds over the Beach" event they hold each year in May. They have a LOT of reenactors that regularly show up for this representing the various Axis and Allies of WWII, along with sit-downs with a lot of veterans that show up at this too:

I would like to see how they started it- without a compressor stage the V1 needed the launch rail, and an initial impetus, to get enough airflow through it to develop thrust.
Interesting that the crowd cheer when it stops. My dad heard a few of them, but only heard one stop. No one cheered...
