Nah, it was "up and out" on the F-102.

But it wasn't equipped with the "zero/zero" ejection seats that
today's aircraft have - so low level ejections -were- problematic.

But then, F-102s tended to spend very little time at low altitudes.
Take offs and landings were pretty much the extent of that.
